Re: [nv-l] nvpagerd - PAGE_Q full error
2003-09-17 16:49:46
I'll reconfigure my pager settings and when the hurricane knocks out our
power tommorow I'll let you guys know if the "-q" option worked... I think
my problem is that the daemon wont recover by simply trying to restarting
it. I have to reboot the whole system to get the daemon , the OS, and modem
to talk to each other.

You can. I said so before. That
feature was added as part APAR IY29166 in 7.1.2.
The conclusion of that APAR reads
as follows:
The paging queue on Solaris is still
fixed, but the default
size has been raised to 500 pages. In
addition, a new option,
-q <size> , has been added to
the nvpagerd daemon
on Solaris. The user can set this value
to whatever size is
more suitable for him.
Users who wish to set their own size
limit should
edit the /usr/OV/lrf/nvpagerd.lrf file
and add the -q <size>
option there, just as they might
add the -d or -w options for
debug tracing or using the warm file.
It is then necessary to
ovstop nvpagerd, and do first ovdelobj
/usr/OV/lrf/nvpagerd.lrf
and then ovaddobj /usr/OV/lrf/nvpagerd.lrf
to change the options
before starting the daemon again.
A new message has been added
to the nvpagerd.alog file which documents
the queue size in use.
Note that the use of this new option
has not been added to the
serversetup dialog at this time.
This fix is first available in NetView
for Solaris Version
7.1.2.

I am using Solaris 8 with NetView
7.1.3. i do remember seeing another
message that stated a limit of 500. i wish I could change this.

>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.
