NAME
NSTRSCHED — number of STREAMS scheduler daemons to run
VALUES
Allowed values
0 - 2147483647
DESCRIPTION
This tunable defines the number of multiprocessor (MP)
STREAMS scheduler daemons to run on systems containing more than one
processor. Note that uniprocessor (UP) systems do not use an MP
scheduler daemon, but both MP and UP systems always have one UP
STREAMS scheduler (supsched).
If the tunable value is set to zero, the system determines how many
daemons to run, based on the number of processors in the system.
If the tunable value is set to a positive, non-zero value, that is
the number of smpsched daemons that will be created on an MP system.
Note: This tunable is for use by specific HP products only. It may
be removed in future HP-UX releases.
