Subject: [Networker] nkthread and nproc parameters for Networker

Hi,

What is the recommended values of nkthread and nproc parameters for
Networker server running on HP-UX box and how to calculate these values
?

Full backups are getting failed with the following error:

prngd[2848]: Could not fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

Environment:

Networker Server running with version 7.1.3.Build.421 on HP-UX B.11.11

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Srinivas.
