    Hi,All
    I am new to AIX. This is the ulimit of my machine:
    -bash-3.00# ulimit -a
    ...
    pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 64
    ...
    Does anyone know how to change the pipe size?
    Thanks a lot.

    bash: ulimit: pipe size: cannot modify limit: A system call received a parameter that is not valid.
