The OpenVMS AUTHORIZE utility allows you to set up, modify, and delete users. You can also use the utility to assign limits to a user's process (such as UICs, passwords, privileges, default directories, and other factors).
The following table summarizes recommended default AUTHORIZE values in relation to GT.M.
|
Recommended Default VAX and AXP Minimum AUTHORIZE Values for GT.M Users | ||
|
PARAMETER |
VALUE |
NOTES |
|
ASTLM |
250 |
Because database and terminal I/O are both asynchronous, GT.M can use many ASTs. |
|
BYTLM |
32768-VAX 64000-AXP (default) |
MUPIP operations on large database regions may require larger values. If database files are fragmented, the required values will be substantially larger. |
|
DIOLM |
40-VAX 150-AXP (default) |
For applications with heavy database access, higher values can be used to good advantage. |
|
ENQLM |
200-VAX 2000-AXP (default) |
Must be at least 3 + 1 per simultaneously active database segment + 1 per segment that is journaled. |
|
FILLM |
300-VAX 300-AXP (default) |
Adjust this upward for large numbers of regions, and/or concurrently open sequential files. |
|
MAXDETACH |
0 (default) |
The default does not limit the number of detached jobs; this only affects users of the JOB command. |
|
PFQUOTA |
32768-VAX 50000-AXP |
HP's recommended value. |
|
SHRFILLM |
0 (default) |
The default does not limit the number of shared files; if you limit this, leave enough for each image and database region concurrently in use. |
|
WSEDEFAULT |
512-VAX 2000-AXP |
GT.M uses large working sets well, especially where there is much shared memory, which is usually the case. |
|
WSEXTENT |
20480-VAX 327680-AXP | |
|
WSQUOTA |
4096-VAX 32000-AXP |
