RE: How to increase Fifo Max.size limit in RedHat 9.0?

["Ben Yau" <byau@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From the bash(1) man page for ulimit:

 

 -p     The pipe size in 512-byte blocks (this may not be set)

I guess you can't set it.  What is the end thing you are trying to do?

Hi,

 

Does anybody know how to increase FIFO Max. size limit on RedHat 9.0?

My current limit is 8*512 bytes, which is as shown by "ulimit -p" command.

I tried to increase it to 20*512 bytes using  command: "ulimit  -p 20".

Got this error:

 

ulimit: pipe size: cannot modify limit: Invalid argument

 

Let me know is there is any other way to change the Max. size of Fifo/Pipe?

 

TIA,

Sandeep
