On our production SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 system, I see this console message every few days:<br />
&quot;CONFIG: timeout - Timeout table free list empty (min_free_callouts = 50 exceeded)&quot;.<br />
<br />
According to an entry in <a href="http://www.aplawrence.com/SCOFAQ/scotec1.html" rel="ugc">www.aplawrence.com/SCOFAQ/scotec1.html</a>, if I read it correctly, this indicates that the NCALL kernel parameter value should be increased. I've stepped through every area (performance and configuration tunables) available in scoadmin, but I don't see the NCALL parameter listed.<br />
<br />
How do I update this value?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

How to tune NCALL (kernel callout table size) in SCO?

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
