Subject: HP-UX tuning tips
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Here are some tuning tips for HP-UX to add to the tuning page.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For HP-UX 9.X: Upgrade to 10.20<br />
|
|
For HP-UX 10.[00|01|10]: Upgrade to 10.20</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For HP-UX 10.20:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Install the latest cumulative ARPA Transport Patch. This
|
|
will allow you to configure the size of the TCP connection
|
|
lookup hash table. The default is 256 buckets and must be set
|
|
to a power of two. This is accomplished with adb against the
|
|
*disc* image of the kernel. The variable name is <code>tcp_hash_size</code>.
|
|
Notice that it's critically important that you use "<code>W</code>"
|
|
to write a 32 bit quantity, not "<code>w</code>" to write a 16 bit
|
|
value when patching the disc image because the <code>tcp_hash_size</code>
|
|
variable is a 32 bit quantity.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>How to pick the value? Examine the output of <a href="ftp://ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/tools/connhist">ftp://ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/tools/connhist</a>
|
|
and see how many total TCP connections exist on the system. You
|
|
probably want that number divided by the hash table size to be
|
|
reasonably small, say less than 10. Folks can look at HP's
|
|
SPECweb96 disclosures for some common settings. These can be
|
|
found at <a href="http://www.specbench.org/">http://www.specbench.org/</a>.
|
|
If an HP-UX system was performing at 1000 SPECweb96 connections
|
|
per second, the <code>TIME_WAIT</code> time of 60 seconds would mean
|
|
60,000 TCP "connections" being tracked.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Folks can check their listen queue depths with <a href="ftp://ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/misc/listenq">ftp://ftp.cup.hp.com/dist/networking/misc/listenq</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If folks are running Apache on a PA-8000 based system, they
|
|
should consider "chatr'ing" the Apache executable to have a
|
|
large page size. This would be "<code>chatr +pi L <BINARY></code>".
|
|
The GID of the running executable must have <code>MLOCK</code> privileges.
|
|
<code>Setprivgrp(1m)</code> should be consulted for assigning
|
|
<code>MLOCK</code>. The change can be validated by running Glance
|
|
and examining the memory regions of the server(s) to make sure that
|
|
they show a non-trivial fraction of the text segment being locked.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If folks are running Apache on MP systems, they might
|
|
consider writing a small program that uses <code>mpctl()</code>
|
|
to bind processes to processors. A simple <code>pid % numcpu</code>
|
|
algorithm is probably sufficient. This might even go into the
|
|
source code.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If folks are concerned about the number of <code>FIN_WAIT_2</code>
|
|
connections, they can use nettune to shrink the value of
|
|
<code>tcp_keepstart</code>. However, they should be careful there -
|
|
certainly do not make it less than oh two to four minutes. If
|
|
<code>tcp_hash_size</code> has been set well, it is probably OK to
|
|
let the <code>FIN_WAIT_2</code>'s take longer to timeout (perhaps
|
|
even the default two hours) - they will not on average have a big
|
|
impact on performance.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are other things that could go into the code base, but
|
|
that might be left for another email. Feel free to drop me a
|
|
message if you or others are interested.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>sincerely,</p>
