8.4 Examining AGEN$PARAMS.REPORT
If the report includes a message similar to the following, you can modify the size
of the page, swap, or dump file:
(******************
%AUTOGEN-W-DSKSPC, The disk on which DISK$OpenVMS072:[SYS0.SYSEXE]PAGEFILE.SYS
resides would be over 95% full if it were modified to hold 20000
blocks.
******************)
For more information about modifying the sizes of the page, swap, or dump files,
see Section 8.5.
8.5 Checking the Size of System Files
AUTOGEN sets the following files at sizes appropriate for your system:
[SYSEXE]SYSDUMP.DMP
[SYSEXE]PAGEFILE.SYS
[SYSEXE]SWAPFILE.SYS
For special workloads or configurations, you can specify different sizes for these
files. Check the sizes of these files to be sure they meet your needs. Log in to the
SYSTEM account and enter the following command:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:SWAPFILES
For more information, refer to the OpenVMS System Manager’s Manual, Volume
1: Essentials.
8.6 Examining Your Command Procedures
The upgrade procedure places a new version of WELCOME.TXT on your system
disk. If your system uses a site-specific version of this file, you must modify the
new version of the file with your changes.
The upgrade procedure restores your site-specific version of the following files
with *.COM_OLD_SPECIFIC extensions:
SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
SYCONFIG.COM
SYPAGSWPFILES.COM
SYSECURITY.COM
SYSHUTDWN.COM
SYLOGIN.COM
LOGIN.COM
SYLOGICALS.COM
LAT$SYSTARTUP.COM
TFF$STARTUP.COM
The upgrade procedure provides new templates for some of these files with the
.TEMPLATE extension. The new templates can include features that are not in
your site-specific files. Check the templates against your site-specific files and
edit your files as necessary.
Remember, you do not need a START/QUEUE/MANAGER command in your
startup file because the queue manager automatically starts up when you boot
the system.
