Fairly common on HP-UX. You didn't indicat which one you have (9.04, 10.20, 11.11 etc...).
The following is an excerpt from a post on the Dutchworks mail archives:
Quote:
1. Use SAM --> Kernel --> Configurable Parameters
npty (10.20 and 11.0)
nstrpty (11.x only)
nstrtel (11.x only)
set NPTY, NSTRPTY, and NSTRTEL to 512, save and reboot.
NPTY, NSTRPTY, and NSTRTEL are the desired number of telnet sessions.
=20
2. Rebuild the special device files at the command prompt as follows:
=20
insf -d ptys -n 512 512 being the number you set NPTY in SAM
(10.20
and
11.0)
insf -d ptym -n 512 10.20 and 11.0)
=20
insf -d pts -s 512 -e -v (for 11.x only )
=20
insf -d pty -n 512 (for 11.x only )
=20
=20
=20
That's it, your sessions have been increased to 512
=20
NOTE: 512 is just and example value that was used. You should determine
the amount of PTYs needed by looking at the average amount of users that
login to your system.
HP's ITRC is at itrc.hp.com. You have to register then go to forums. Nowadays there is much more activity on ITRC than Dutchworks but Dutchworks has good archives and is active.
