Setting Up Files

Maximum Number of Open Files. This variable specifies the maximum number of simultaneous open files allowed on a server.

File Default umask. This variable specifies the host umask used to reduce host permissions on files created by NetWare users. The supported values are octal 0000 to 0777. The default is 0002 which assigns rwx permissions to the owner of the file.

Enable Host Locking? This variable specifies whether the NetWare byte range locks are mirrored on the HP-UX file system. "Yes" means any NetWare byte range lock is reflected as a HP-UX byte range lock on the entire file. "No" means the NetWare byte range lock is not reflected as a HP-UX byte range on the entire file. The default is No.

Threshold for Purging Deleted File Entries. This variable specifies the number of deleted file entries that must exist in a directory if it is purged. By default, the value of the nwcm utility's npfs_directory_purge_threshold is used. The value can be overridden on a volume-to-volume basis using the voltab file. Smaller values cause deleted files to be purged more often. Larger values cause deleted files to be purged when the usinodes file is full. The default is 32.

Minimum Wait between Directory Synchronizations. This variable specifies the minimum number of seconds that will elapse between directory synchronization operations. By default, the npfs_directory_min_sync_interval is used. The value can be overridden on a volume-to-volume basis using the voltab file. The default is 10.

Maximum Wait between Directory Synchronizations. This variable specifies the maximum number of seconds that will elapse between directory synchronization operations. By default, the nwcm utility's npfs_directory_mandatory_sync_interval is used. The value can be overridden on a volume-to-volume basis using the voltab file. If the "Minimum Wait between Directory Synchronizations" variable is set higher than this value, "Minimum Wait between Directory Synchronizations" value is ignored. The default is 900.
