I need to set ulimit values according to
I used
Code:
ulimit -c unlimited
ulimit -s unlimited
ulimit -u unlimited
But after I log again to my session values are set to default. Now can I set this values so they don't change after log out of after reboot?
I wrote this because i was able to use openmpi to run mpirun on my 12-core workstation rather happily since day 1 I setup the system a few months ago. Yesterday when I tried to run a big job under mpirun, the job crashed rather quickly, the error message was something like mpirun process exited blah blah with signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Interestingly (or annoyingly) a job required less memory ran okay.
Since I never had this problem before, I thought it was the hardware failure. I called my IT guy to explain the problem and he is kind
enough to suggest to put a line
ulimit -s 40960
in my .bashrc. And it works! But I have no clue why mpirun misbehaves out of a sudden, and that ulimit setting solves the problem completely. I would like to learn from this incident.
What is the default kernel paramtre valus for linux RHEL Machine?
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy question is about TCP parameters in Linux. By now, I want to change the default values of:
Initial Timeout
ACK Delay
Idle Connection Timeout
I have a Linux Box with kernel 2.6.x and 2 ethernet interfaces. I know TCP is a stack that doesn't have anything to do with ethernet devices. Said that, the question: is there a way to set custom values for each interface? For example, a server listening to connections in eth0 would use one value for Idle Connection Timeout and another server listening to connections in eth1 could use a different value for that parameter.

It works fine, but is it possible to have default values using bash read(1b)? I mean if user is prompter for sex, he just pushes ENTER and by default 'm' is chosen.

We are using a hadoop server & we dont want the server memory to overload. So, I have set the ulimit for max memory size and for some time it was working fine but memory was overloading before EOD. I came to know about soft & hard limits and set the hard limit for the maximum memory size in /etc/security/limits.conf file. But, the limits were not shown in ulimit -a command ouput. So, I restarted the server. Then, the limit was shown in the ulimit command output. But, memory is still getting overloaded as you can see the memory used is more than the limit set. Anyone kndly suggest me on this issue.

I'd like to set the max stack size at boot time, preferably as early as possible. I had thought there's a kernel parameter for this, but I cannot find any reference to one.Adding "ulimit -s" to rc.sysinit was not effective; I've grepped /etc/init.d but it is not used subsequently. So what I currently have is my default runlevel set to 1, with no services except udev-post, then in rc.local:
Code:
ulimit -s 1024
telinit 3
3 being my normal runlevel with all necessary services. However, again that ulimit is being ignored, because after login it is still set to 8192. If after login I manually set the limit and change from 3 to 1 and back again (to restart all services), everything is copacetic.
Does anyone know why ulimit -s is ineffective prior to login or how I can set the max stack size at boot time? I'm just noticing that under "upstart" runlevel services are not controlled by rc.d content. Preuming:
#1 My desire to make F14 work without upstart, using ye olde sysinitv which weren't broke so I don't need it fixed, is going to be like p'sing up a rope.
#2 That systemd is replacing upstart so I might as well try to learn about that.
how can I get "rc.local" functionality under systemd?
A strange question, I guess. I'm running processes called from a c main program. The calling is performed (for now) as: FILE * res=popen(ulimit -t 1; prg args); So I can read the stdout of the process as a file and analyze it. The time limit is important for me.
2 questions:
1. How do I get to know if the process terminated on its own or by the ulimit?
2. How do I limit to times that are less than 1 sec (I have many of those).
I know that setrlimit exists, just before I change my whole approach I wanted to see if I can deal with these things from the outside.
Newbie here! Our website CMS is a Tomcat webapp, which runs on a CentOS 5.6 release (Final). The webapp needs a permanent increase of the max. open files value. Currently, the site is "crashing" frequently due to continuous "Too many open files" exceptions that eventually will occur when traffic increases.
This is what I've done to try to increase the max. open files value code...
But still, when I log in (as any user, incl. root), ulimit -n shows 1024, not 16384. Am I missing something here? And, more importantly; Will Tomcat be able to open > 1024 files after my changes mentioned above?

Why are the priority values of the process different? What is the difference? Is the value 15 the "nice" priority? Then, what is the value 75? Please, explain the difference of each result.
I couldn't really decide where this should be posted, but this is the most general of the forums. Anyway, I've been playing a wargame on intruded.net in which some of the challenges require me to pass hexvalues into the programs as character values. All is well with this, and usually I would use the shell to pass it in, but most of these programs use the gets() method to get my input.
Here comes the problem... The other day I was using my desktop which runs slackware 64 13.1 to do these challenges. My method was to use "echo -e 'xefxbexadxde'" to print them to the shell's standard output and then highlight and copy the resulting values to paste to the program. This works just fine on slackware, but when I repeated the same processes on Ubuntu 64 10.04 (which runs on my laptop) the 'xde' always turns up to be 'x00'. Then I tried some other levels with similar responses, not all the hex values convert to the correct ASCII characters.
Is there any way i can pass two / three values to grep. Basically i want to list the lines in the file with three different values. Currently I'm using three grep to get my work done.

I have the following values in my log file:

2010-05-13 12:00:00 k_TRANSFER OK (12)
2010-05-13 12:30:00 m_TRANSFER OK (32)
2010-05-13 13:00:00 m_TRANSFER OK (13)
...
I want to replace every number with it's decrement. For example, the above values should be:
...
2010-05-13 11:00:00 k_TRANSFER OK (10)
2010-05-13 11:30:01 m_TRANSFER OK (20)
2010-05-13 12:00:00 k_TRANSFER OK (11)

My cpu is set via Gnome-power manager to automatically speedstep under demand....
the thing is i have a few nice level 19 processes running most the time that eat up all the idle time, this forces my clock speed up and as such makes the fan noisy and uses more power...
basically what i would like to do is to ignore process load with a nice over a certian level when determining weather to speed step.
