ulimit -v on SLES10/11

[Stefan Pommerening]

Hi all,

I am currently hunting down a strange configuration problem on SLES 
machines.
And I could need some help if someone of you guys is also running SLES.

I had a strange problem with varnish not coming up which was result of 
virtual memory on newly installed SLES 11 machines was configured the 
same size as real memory was. On our 'older' SLES 10 machines the value 
of ulimit -v was always 'unlimited' which allows varnish to fetch as 
much virtual memory it needs. This took me some time to find out and now 
I wonder what the default configuration on SLES 10 / 11 is. As I have no 
clue where to look for it I'd like to ask if someone could send me the 
values he finds on his default SLES machine (ulimit -v).

Need not be on the mailing list - might be direct personal mail. I will 
send out a summary if this happens to be an error in the default SLES 11 
configuration as this might be helpful for others, too.

Have a nice week-end,
Stefan
