2.4.2.1. Perl Prerequisites
On HP-UX, Red Hat Directory Server uses the Perl version installed with the operating system in
/
opt/perl_64/bin/perl
. Contact Hewlett-Packard support if this Perl version is not installed.
2.4.2.2. Kernel Parameters
The parameters to edit and the recommended values are listed in
Table 2.6, “HP-UX 11i Kernel

2.4.2.3. TIME_WAIT Setting
Normally, client applications that shut down correctly cause the socket to linger in a
TIME_WAIT
state.
Verify that the
TIME_WAIT
entry is set to a reasonable duration. For example:
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_time_wait_interval 60000
This limits the socket
TIME_WAIT
state to 60 seconds.
2.4.2.4. Large File Support
To run Directory Server on HP-UX, you must enable large file support.
1. Unmount the filesystem using the
umount
command.
umount /export
2. Create the large filesystem.
fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /dev/vg01/rexport
