Operating System Notes


 ulimits set to unlimited

 bindprocessor command used on submit to bind each copy to a
 unique processor.

 Large page mode was set as follows:
 vmo -r -o lgpg_regions=900 -o lgpg_size=16777216
 SMT was ebabled using the AIX commands
 smtctl -m on -w boot
 bosboot -aD
 shutdown -rF
