Hi
The following is aon 5.3-RELEASE-p5
If I do a limits command I get
# limits
Resource limits (current):
cputime infinity secs
filesize infinity kb
datasize 524288 kb
stacksize 65536 kb
coredumpsize infinity kb
memoryuse infinity kb
memorylocked infinity kb
maxprocesses 5547
openfiles 11095
sbsize infinity bytes
vmemoryuse infinity kb
#
However, login.conf has (and no other classes defined)
default:\
:passwd_format=md5:\
:copyright=/etc/COPYRIGHT:\
:welcome=/etc/motd:\
:setenv=MAIL=/var/mail/$,BLOCKSIZE=K,FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES:\
:path=/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin
/usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin ~/bin:\
:nologin=/var/run/nologin:\
:cputime=unlimited:\
:datasize=unlimited:\
:stacksize=unlimited:\
:memorylocked=unlimited:\
:memoryuse=unlimited:\
:filesize=unlimited:\
:coredumpsize=unlimited:\
:openfiles=unlimited:\
:maxproc=unlimited:\
:sbsize=unlimited:\
:vmemoryuse=unlimited:\
:priority=0:\
:ignoretime@:\
:umask=022:
------
I am wondering where the datasize and stacksize get set. These have
limits when listed with "limits" but they do not appear to be getting
set through login as the login.conf has unlimitged.
I have looked at the output of sysctl -a with grep for various things
(limit, datasize, 512 524288 etc and not seen any obvious candidates)
I am trying to run stuff from the Coroner's Toolbox and am getting "Out
of memory!" and so would like to try this with some adjusted process
values.
Any help on where these get set and how to change them would be
appreciated.
Thanks
Chad
