aio_physmem_pct(5) -- percentage of physical memory lockable for request
|
This parameter places a limit on how much system memory can be locked by the total number of POSIX asynchronous I/O operations that are in progress at any given time. It is important to be aware that an operation remains on the active queue and memory is not released, even if the operation is complete, until it is properly terminated by an aio_return() call for that operation. Asynchronous I/O ope... |
aio_prio_delta_max(5) -- greatest delta (slowdown factor) allowed in POSIX async IO request priorities
|
This parameter places a limit on how much the priority of a POSIX asynchronous I/O operation can be reduced to slow it down. This is the maximum priority-offset value allowed for aio_reqprio in the asynchronous-I/O control block structure aiocb. Who Is Expected to Change This Tunable? System administrators that run applications requiring heavy usage of POSIX AIO to file systems. |

aio_proc_threads(5) -- maximum number of process threads allowed in AIO pool
|
The implementation of POSIX AIO on HP-UX uses kernel threads to perform I/Os to filesystems that do not directly support true asynchronous I/O. (This distinction is transparent to the user.) The kernel threads are organized into worker-thread pools (called AIO thread pools) created on a per-process basis. Since a thread pool mechanism for I/Os introduces a variety of trade-offs concerning utilizat... |
aio_proc_thread_pct(5) -- percentage of all process threads allowed in AIO pool

aliases(5) -- aliases file for sendmail
|
The newaliases command (which is the same as sendmail -bi; see sendmail(1M)) builds the sendmail alias database from a text file. The default text file is /etc/mail/aliases. Local addresses (local user names) are looked up in the alias database and expanded as necessary, unless the user name is preceded by a backslash (\). When the aliases file contains multiple entries for a given alias, only th... |
allocate_fs_swapmap(5) -- determines when swapmap structures are allocated for filesystem swap
|
The allocate_fs_swapmap tunable is used to determine whether to allocate all needed filesystem swap structures during the initialization of the filesystem swap device or wait until they are needed. Pre-allocation of all filesystem swap structures upon initialization saves time during later usage of the filesystem swap, and prevents later allocation failure due to physical memory contention. Dynami... |
alwaysdump(5) -- defines which classes of kernel memory pages are dumped when a kernel panic occurs
|
On large systems, the time required to dump system memory when a kernel panic occurs can be excessive or even prohibitive, depending on how much physical memory is installed in the system. Fast-dump capabilities controlled by the dontdump and alwaysdump parameters Hewlett-Packard Company - 1 - HP-UX 11i Version 2: Sep 2004 alwaysdump(5) alwaysdump(5) Tunable Kernel Parameters provide a means for r... |
aries(5) -- family running HP-UX
|
Aries is a dynamic binary emulator which transparently emulates 32-bit and 64-bit PA-RISC HP-UX applications on Itanium-based HP-UX machines. The name ARIES expands to Automatic utomatic Recompilation and ecompilation and Integrated ntegrated Environment nvironment Simulation. Aries is transparent in the sense that: + The PA-RISC HP-UX application is not re-compiled. + The user does not explicitly... |

ascii(5) -- map of ASCII character set
|
The /usr/share/lib/pub/ascii file provides a map of the ASCII character set, giving both octal and hexadecimal equivalents of each character. The file contains the following text: |000 nul|001 soh|002 stx|003 etx|004 eot|005 enq|006 ack|007 bel| |010 bs |011 ht |012 nl |013 vt |014 np |015 cr |016 so |017 si | |020 dle|021 dc1|022 dc2|023 dc3|024 dc4|025 nak|026 syn|027 etb| |030 can|031 em |032 s... |
audio(5) -- audio tools available through HP VUE
|
This man-page describes the audio tools available through HP VUE for playing, recording, and editing sound. These include Audio Setup, Audio Security, Audio Editor, Audio Control Panel, Audio File and Data Formats, and Audio Library. Audio(5) also provides information on using other audio tools from the HP-UX command line. |

audit(5) -- introduction to HP-UX Auditing System
|
The purpose of the auditing system is to record instances of access by subjects to objects and to allow detection of any (repeated) attempts to bypass the protection mechanism and any misuses of privileges, thus acting as a deterrent against system abuses and exposing potential security weaknesses in the system. |
aud_audit_events(5) -- Auditable events for the audit services
|
Code is in place for auditing audit service-significant events. Among these events are: + Administrative operations These are subdivided into modify and query operations. + Filter operations These are subdivided into modify and query operations. Event class definitions, together with filters, control the auditing execution at these code points. Filters can be updated dynamically. Filter files are ... |
