Several kernel-tunable parameters, such as Message Queue, Semaphore, and Shared Memory Parameters, can affect NetBackup performance. If you adjust these values, you may prevent your system performance from slowing down or even reaching a deadlock state.
More information about tunable parameters is available online.
