Operating Systems AIX Maxuproc vs ulimit -u [processes(per user)] Post 302743623 by bacup540 on Thursday 13th of December 2012 05:01:21 AM

Maxuproc vs ulimit -u [processes(per user)]

Morning,

Somebody can tell me in AIX 6.1 what is the different between the maxuproc (lsattr -El sys0 | grep max) and the [processes(per user)] for a user.

Example:
Oracle is limited by :
#ulimit -u
processes(per user) unlimited


But lsattr -El sys0| grep maxuproc show me :
maxuproc 16384

So oracle is limited (number of process) or not ?

which of these command can i believe ? What is the real difference between these parameters ?

Thanks.
