Array Element

This question is for someone that's more familiar with Array Element.

I need to know if the maximum array element that can be assigned is 1024 and if its so, Is there a workaround solution when the counter exceeded 1024?


Code:
 
param_array[counter]="$param_nam"
counter=$counter+1
#to avoid space issue in the param
eval real_value=\"param_value\"
param_array[counter]=\"$real_value\"
counter=$counter+1

When the parm_value is more than 750 we do lose parameter value and I need to find out if there is a workaround using array element since there is a limitation to it.

Our shell script is korn shell on AIX platform.

Thanks

TIMECOUNTERS(4) 					   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					   TIMECOUNTERS(4)

NAME
timecounters -- kernel time counters subsystem SYNOPSIS
The kernel uses several types of time-related devices, such as: real time clocks, time counters and event timers. Real time clocks are responsible for tracking real world time, mostly when the system is down. Time counters are responsible for tracking purposes, when the sys- tem is running. Event timers are responsible for generating interrupts at a specified time or periodically, to run different time-based events. This page is about the second. DESCRIPTION
Time counters are the lowest level of time tracking in the kernel. They provide monotonically increasing timestamps with known width and update frequency. They can overflow, drift, etc and so in raw form can be used only in very limited performance-critical places like the process scheduler. More usable time is created by scaling the values read from the selected time counter and combining it with some offset, regularly updated by tc_windup() on hardclock() invocation. Different platforms provide different kinds of timer hardware. The goal of the time counters subsystem is to provide a unified way to access that hardware. Each driver implementing time counters registers them with the subsystem. It is possible to see the list of present time counters, via the kern.timecounter sysctl(8) variable: kern.timecounter.choice: TSC-low(-100) HPET(950) i8254(0) ACPI-fast(900) dummy(-1000000) kern.timecounter.tc.ACPI-fast.mask: 16777215 kern.timecounter.tc.ACPI-fast.counter: 13467909 kern.timecounter.tc.ACPI-fast.frequency: 3579545 kern.timecounter.tc.ACPI-fast.quality: 900 kern.timecounter.tc.i8254.mask: 65535 kern.timecounter.tc.i8254.counter: 62692 kern.timecounter.tc.i8254.frequency: 1193182 kern.timecounter.tc.i8254.quality: 0 kern.timecounter.tc.HPET.mask: 4294967295 kern.timecounter.tc.HPET.counter: 3013495652 kern.timecounter.tc.HPET.frequency: 14318180 kern.timecounter.tc.HPET.quality: 950 kern.timecounter.tc.TSC-low.mask: 4294967295 kern.timecounter.tc.TSC-low.counter: 4067509463 kern.timecounter.tc.TSC-low.frequency: 11458556 kern.timecounter.tc.TSC-low.quality: -100 The output nodes are defined as follows: kern.timecounter.tc.X.mask is a bitmask, defining valid counter bits, kern.timecounter.tc.X.counter is a present counter value, kern.timecounter.tc.X.frequency is a counter update frequency, kern.timecounter.tc.X.quality is an integral value, defining the quality of this time counter compared to others. A negative value means this time counter is broken and should not be used. The time management code of the kernel chooses one time counter from that list. The current choice can be read and affected via the kern.timecounter.hardware tunable/sysctl. SEE ALSO
