I have put code-tags around the listing, it makes te stanza-format easier to read.
The file /etc/security/limits works this way: a user will use the values of the "default"-stanza but explizit values overwrite these defaults for the specific user. Thereofre: copy the values of the oracle-user to the other user-id to change it to the same values:
The user hast to log on again to use these new values.
I know in php if you use the function filesize it will return the size of the file in bytes, but is there an easy way to get the size in MB.

Hi friends.
I would like to increase my file ulimit for all users to unlimited.
ulimit -f unlimited will only affect my current shell.
How can I increase for all users, all shells ?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I have a script that should store file size in a variable $filesize.
I don't know what is the best way to do it.
I tried
ls -lt myfile.txt | sed something >$filesize
but I don't know how to use sed to get filesize. I know that the owner of the file is root and then we have some... (6 Replies)

Morning,
Somebody can tell me in AIX 6.1 what is the different between the maxuproc (lsattr -El sys0 | grep max) and the for a user.
Example:
Oracle is limited by :
#ulimit -u
processes(per user) unlimited
But lsattr -El sys0| grep maxuproc show me :
maxuproc 16384

Hi,
what are the ideal/best/recommended ulimit settings for a root user in AIX?
I understand that it depends on our environment. But I would like to know...what are settings you guys use in your environment for best performance.
default:
fsize = 2097151
core = 2097151

I have seen two different ways for changing the ulimit for a user in aix. Which one is better?
Option 1
edit /etc/security/limits
oracle:
fsize = -1
data = -1
stack = -1
fsize_hard = -1
nofiles = -1
nofiles_hard = -1
Option 2

ulimit
ULIMIT(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ULIMIT(3)NAME
ulimit -- get and set process limits
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <ulimit.h>
long int
ulimit(int cmd, ...);
DESCRIPTION
The ulimit() function provides a method to query or alter resource limits of the calling process. The method to be performed is specified by
the cmd argument; possible values are:
UL_GETFSIZE Return the soft file size limit of the process. The value returned is in units of 512-byte blocks. If the result cannot be
represented in an object of type long int, the result is unspecified.
UL_SETFSIZE Set the hard and soft file size limits of the process to the value of the second argument passed, which is in units of
512-byte blocks, and which is expected to be of type long int. The new file size limit of the process is returned. Any
process may decrease the limit, but raising it is only permitted if the caller is the super-user.
If successful, the ulimit() function will not change the setting of errno.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, the ulimit() function returns the value of the requested limit. Otherwise, it returns -1, sets errno to indicate an error,
and the limit is not changed. Therefore, to detect an error condition applications should set errno to 0, call ulimit(), and check if -1 is
returned and errno is non-zero.
ERRORS
The ulimit() function will fail if:
[EINVAL] The cmd argument is not valid.
[EPERM] It was attempted to increase a limit, and the caller is not the super-user.
SEE ALSO getrlimit(2), setrlimit(2)STANDARDS
The ulimit() function conforms to X/Open System Interfaces and Headers Issue 5 (``XSH5'') and IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1''). It was
marked as obsolete in the IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'') revision, which recommended the use of getrlimit(2) and setrlimit(2) instead,
noting that because ulimit() uses the type long rather than rlim_t, it may not be sufficient for file sizes on many current systems.
