Side Notes
3.3 Setting Socket buffers on Unix platforms
- You may want to increase the size of the systems net buffers.
on linux in the file /etc/sysctl.conf, add:
net.core.rmem_default=1048576
net.core.rmem_max=1048576
net.core.wmem_default=1048576
net.core.wmem_max=1048576
to configure without a reboot:
sysctl -w net.core.rmem_default=1048576
sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=1048576
sysctl -w net.core.wmem_default=1048576
sysctl -w net.core.wmem_max=1048576
Adding Zenoss to CheckConfig?
cp $ZENHOME/zenoss /etc/init.d
chkconfig --add zenoss
chkconfig --level 345 zenoss on
