- OS/2 LAN Server for Macintosh 1.0
-
- IC05327 - LSM file server performance is inadequate for complex folder
- operations and deteriorates rapidly as more users log in and
- open shared volumes.
-
- Files affected:
-
- LSM: \IBMLAN\NETPROG\ATALK.SYS
- 84400 06/21/93 2:03p
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\LSMFILE.EXE
- 298988 06/21/93 10:22a
-
- LAN Server 3.0: \MUGLIB\DLL\NETAPI.DLL
- 354021 06/07/93 3:57p
- \MUGLIB\DLL\NETAPI32.DLL (new)
- 2253 06/07/93 3:57p
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\NETSERVR.EXE
- 201687 06/07/93 4:06p
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\NETSVINI.EXE
- 49680 06/07/93 4:09p
-
- Documentation changes:
-
- Appendix A of the OS/2 LAN Server for Macintosh
- Administrator's Guide lists the parameters which LSM
- processes. Some of these may need to be adjusted when many
- Macintoshes will be simultaneously logged in to LSM.
-
- maxOpenFiles: Default 40. This may need to be raised
- depending on how many Macintosh users there are
- and what they will be doing.
-
- Bufs: Minimum 16, default 64, maximum 93. Raise to
- two per simultaneous logged in Macintosh up to
- the maximum of 93 for more than 46 users.
-
- GDTSels: Minimum 100, default 400, maximum 1000. Set to
- ten per simultaneous logged in Macintosh. This
- is a global OS/2 resource and should not be
- raised any larger than actually needed.
-
- MemPool: Minimum 1000, default 32768, maximum 65536.
- Raise to about 1000 per simultaneous logged in
- Macintoshes, up to the maximum of 65536 for
- more than 65 users.
-
- In addition, note that the "rxbufs" and "txbufs" parameters
- placed in the \IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI under ╒appletalk■ are not
- used and can be removed.

- =========================
-
- LSM: \IBMLAN\NETPROG\ATALK.SYS
-
- This file can be replaced any time whether LSM is
- running or not. Reboot OS/2 for changes to take
- affect. This file can be replaced independently of any
- others as needed for selected fixes.
-
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\LSMFILE.EXE
-
- This file can be replaced except when the LSM file
- server is running. Issue NET STOP LSMFILE to stop the
- service. Replace this file. Restart with NET START
- LSMFILE. Normally it is not necessary to reboot for
- changes to take affect. This file can be replaced
- independently of any others, but to get the performance
- enhancements the LAN Server files listed below must
- also be replaced either before or after this one.
-
-
- LAN Server: \MUGLIB\DLL\NETAPI.DLL
- \MUGLIB\DLL\NETAPI32.DLL (new, LS 3.0 only)
-
- These files must be replaced together and can not be
- replaced while the LAN Server device drivers are
- running. The system must either be booted from
- diskette or all the relevant statements commented out
- of CONFIG.SYS. Usually booting from diskette is
- easier.
-
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\NETSERVR.EXE
- \IBMLAN\SERVICES\NETSVINI.EXE
-
- These files must be replaced together and at the same
- time as, or after NETAPI.DLL above.
