Capacity, Scaling, and Limits impacts summary
 |
| |
|

This impact class contains impacts related to HP-UX Capacity,
Scaling, and Limits changes. Many of these impacts may require you
to modify your source code.
|
Newer versions of HP-UX may contain enhancements to certain default
per-process limits and other scalability factors. While many of these
limits are controllable through tunable variables in the kernel and other
mechanisms, the default values for these limits may be different from one
release of HP-UX to another. In addition, differences exist for 32-bit
and 64-bit applications as noted in the table below.

Run-Time
Limits
 |
| |
| Run-time limits affect a program's run-time capabilities, but are
not controlled on a per-process basis. These limits, such as the
number of threads per process, are kernel tunable parameters. The
following table lists some of the more important limits that affect a
process. |
