tuning network parameters : parameters not persist after reboot
Hello,
On Aix 5.2, we changed the parameters tcp_keepinit, tcp_keepintvl and tcp_keepidle with the no command.
tunrestore -R is present in inittab
in the directory /etc/tunables we can clearly see the inclusion of parameters during reboot, including the file lastboot.log
But when we checked with the no command, the parameters are not valid
is it because of the pre520tune parameter is disabled?
have you a solution for this problem?
thank you for your answers

I can test for one parameter but anything more then that and I get an Error.
I forgot I run this batch in a shell

I swapped out 2 72 gb disk drives for 2 146 gb drives, both of which spin at 15k.
Are there any I/O parameters I should modify or can modify to get the most out of the new disks?
Thanks,

Can only root do this, or can other users too? if other users can, do they have to be given permission, and if so, is there a file or something that stores this?

I am trying to delete a route using the command:
route -p delete 192.0.0.0 192.1.3.254
The route gets delete but for some reason the route pops back up in the routing table after reboot. I also deleted the /etc/inet/static_routes file and the route still persists after reboot.... (6 Replies)

settune
settune(2) System Calls Manual settune(2)NAME
settune() - set the value of a kernel tunable parameter
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
This function sets the value of the kernel tunable parameter named tunable to the supplied value. This new value takes effect immediately,
except in the cases noted below.
Some parameters cannot be changed without rebooting the kernel. These parameters cannot be changed using
Some parameters represent limits on resources that can be consumed by individual processes. In general, changes to these parameters do not
affect processes that are running at the time the change is made; they affect only new programs started (with or an equivalent) after that
time. Some specific parameters may be exceptions to this general rule; see the man pages for those parameters for details.
Valid values for the flags parameter and their connotations are:
The value of the tunable parameter is set by the kernel. The
value parameter to is ignored.
Sets the tunable parameter to the
value and turns off any automatic tuning done by the kernel.
The call can give information about whether or not changes to a parameter are allowed or will require a reboot. Some individual parameters
may have specific notes regarding their behavior when changed; consult the parameter man pages for details on each specific parameter.
Security Restrictions
The actions associated with this system call require the privilege. Processes owned by the superuser have this privilege. Processes owned
by other users may have this privilege, depending on system configuration. See privileges(5) for more information about privileged access
on systems that support fine-grained privileges.
RETURN VALUE
This function returns one of the following values:
The value of the specified parameter has been changed.
The function did not complete successfully. The value of the specified
parameter has not been changed.
ERRORS
If this function returns to indicate an error, the global variable will be set to one of the following values to indicate the error that
occurred:
The specified tunable parameter does not exist.
tunable specifies an address that is inaccessible.
The caller does not have the
privilege.
The specified value is not within the acceptable range for the specified
parameter.
The value of the parameter could not be changed immediately.
The specified parameter cannot be changed without rebooting the kernel.
The Kernel Registry Service was unavailable or encountered an error.
Insufficient memory to accommodate the new parameter value.
WARNINGS
It is possible to seriously degrade system performance, or even render a system unbootable, with incorrect tunable settings. Use care when
setting tunable values. Always have a known working kernel configuration saved as a backup; if the system fails to boot after a tunable
change, boot from that backup kernel configuration. Keep good records of all tunable changes so that they can be reversed if they degrade
system performance. Tunable changes made with are automatically logged to
If the tunable being changed through is used in expressions that set the values of other tunables, those expressions will not be re-evalu-
ated and those tunable values will not be updated. Note that this behavior may change in future releases of HP-UX. If expression evalua-
tion is desired, use to set tunable values.
Changes to parameter values made with may not remain effective across reboots. Note that this behavior may change in future releases of
HP-UX. If persistence across reboots is desired, use to set tunable values.
