Richardson) Newsgroups: comp.unix.aix Subject: Setting datasize and stacksize limits on PS/2 Message-ID: <1395@cameron.egr.duke.edu> Date: 11 Apr 91 21:03:47 GMT Sender: news@egr.duke.edu Lines: 21 I'm posting this for a friend so please respond directly to kaj@galvani.egr.duke.edu instead of to me. Thanks in advance. ============================================================== Some of my IBM AIX-PS/2 (version 1.2) users have asked if it is possible to increase the hard limits (datasize, stacksize, etc). The manuals say the Superuser can increase the hard limits, however, I was only able to increase the limits (limit -h something something) for the particular C-shell I was working in as SU. Unlike the RISC/6000 I didn't find a plain ascii parameter file, is there one? If it is not possible to increase the limits this easy, do somebody have a 'bigjob' script that will run user jobs with extended limits? Please be detailed.
