One of our customers has told that one of his system is configured with
vm:vm-page-lock-count=0
There is NO value set for this parameter in file /etc/sysconfigtab.
Trying to set it to another value didn't succeed. I think, I know the
semantics
of this kernel parameter; the default value should be 64.
My questions:
how is it possible to have such a strange value for this parameter?
is there any problem for the customer?
how are the effects of such setting?

The system must be a uni-processor for this to happen. Since there is no need for the vm_page_lock on a single cpu machine, it is reset by the system. No memory is allocated for the locks. So, is it a single cpu machine? --shashi [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||
