semopm

Description

The semopm parameter specifies the maximum number of semaphore operations that can be executed per semop() system call. This parameter permits the system to check or modify the value of more than one semaphore in a set with each semop() system call.

This parameter is specified in /var/sysgen/mtune/sem.

Value

Default: 10

When to Change

Change this parameter to increase/decrease the number of operations permitted per semop() system call. You may need to increase this parameter if you increase semmsl (the number of semaphore sets), so that a process can check/modify all the semaphores in a set with one system call.
