You didn't say what version / platform. I don't believe this is a problem on 
AIX but it is on solaris prior to release 7. In release 7 the queue was 
expanded (and I think can have size changed). I believe the reason is that on 
Solaris they use the shared memory feature which architecturally different than 
AIX. Somebody jump in here if I'm off base. The default size for Solaris is 500 
pages I think.

All,

Whenever we have an outage and some of our devices are unreachable 
NetView is configured to page us. This works fine for a few devices at a 
time. But sometimes we can have a several devices drop off the network 
and this causes a huge surge of alerts to be pushed into nvpagerd's 
queue. When this happens we se the following error and the nvpagerd 
daemon freezes and we have to reboot the entire machine.
Has anybody ran into this error message? Suppose alot of devices go down 
and you need this pages. Why is there a non-expandable queue?
