NAME

       streampipes - force all pipes to be STREAMS-based

VALUES

   Failsafe
   Default
   Allowed values
   Recommended values
DESCRIPTION

       This tunable determines the type of pipe that is created by the system call.  If set to the default value of zero, all pipes created by are
       normal HP-UX file-system pipes.	If the value is non-zero, creates STREAMS-based pipes, and STREAMS modules can be pushed onto the  result-
       ing stream.

       If this tunable is set to a non-zero value, the and module and driver must be configured in file

   Who Is Expected to Change This Tunable?
       Any customer.

   Restrictions on Changing
       Changes to this tunable take effect at next reboot.

   When Should the Tunable Be Turned On?
       If the customer uses applications that require STREAMS-based pipes, this tunable should be turned on.

   What Are the Side Effects of Turning the Tunable On?
       STREAMS-based pipes performance may differ from normal file system pipes.

   When Should the Tunable Be Turned Off?
       If the customer does not need the STREAMS-based pipes, this tunable should be turned off.

   What Are the Side Effects of Turning the Tunable Off?
       Applications that try to push STREAMS modules onto the pipe will fail.

   What Other Tunable Should Be Changed at the Same Time as This One?
       If this tunable is set to a non-zero value, the and module and driver must be configured in the file

WARNINGS

       All  HP-UX kernel tunable parameters are release specific.  This parameter may be removed or have its meaning changed in future releases of
       HP-UX.

       Installation of optional kernel software, from HP or other vendors, may cause changes to tunable  parameter  values.   After  installation,
       some  tunable  parameters may no longer be at the default or recommended values.  For information about the effects of installation on tun-
       able values, consult the documentation for the kernel software being installed.	For information about optional kernel  software  that  was
       factory installed on your system, see at

pwr_idle_ctl(5) 						File Formats Manual						   pwr_idle_ctl(5)

NAME

       pwr_idle_ctl - control power consumption in idle processors on Integrity platforms

VALUES

   Fail Safe
   Default
   Allowed values
DESCRIPTION

       The  tunable  can be used to dynamically control the power consumption of idle processors on Integrity systems.	The tunable can be changed
       from through where represents the least power saving and represents the maximum power saving in idle processors.   Equal  or  greater  idle
       processor power saving is guaranteed by increasing the value of this tunable.

       When the tunable is set to the power saving feature is turned off.

       This  tunable  is  supported only on Integrity platforms with Intel(R) Itanium(R) Processors 9000 Series and later.  It is not supported on
       PA-RISC platforms.

       This tunable is not supported while running in a Integrity Virtual Machine guest environment.

   Who Is Expected to Change This Tunable?
       System administrators who want to control power utilization on idle processors.

   Restrictions on Changing
       The tunable will not take effect on processors belonging to processor sets whose lcpu attribute is turned ON.

       This tunable is dynamic.

   When Should the Tunable Be Turned On?
       The tunable should be turned on to save power on idle systems.

   What Are the Side Effects of Turning the Tunable On?
       Some workloads may experience performance degradation when the tunable is enabled.

   What Are the Side Effects of Turning the Tunable Off?
       With the tunable turned off, the system administrator may not take advantage of possible power saving on idle systems.

   What Other Tunables Should Be Changed at the Same Time?
       None.

WARNINGS

       All HP-UX kernel tunable parameters are release specific.  This parameter may be removed or have its meaning changed in future releases	of
       HP-UX.

       Increase in power savings is not guaranteed with an increase in tunable values in certain environments.

       Enabling this tunable may impact the performance of certain types of workloads.

       Installation  of  optional  kernel  software, from HP or other vendors, may cause changes to tunable parameter values.  After installation,
       some tunable parameters may no longer be at the default or recommended values.  For information about the effects of installation  on  tun-
       able  values,  consult  the documentation for the kernel software being installed.  For information about optional kernel software that was
       factory installed on your system, see at
