RE: aix

As long as you're running 64-bit on AIX you should be fine. 32-bit presents some unique memory configuration issues to maximize shared memory allocation. >From: "Campbell, John (GE Consumer Finance)" <John.Campbell2@ge.com> >To: <informix-list@iiug.org> >Subject: aix >Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 13:14:36 -0400 > >My experience with informix has been soley on Solaris.

Yeah 32-bit Informix Solaris allows 3.75Gb of shared memory. Apparently they could have allow the rest but what is 6%? If anyone knows how to search for the phase 6% on google can they let me know, i can't find the article that mentions this! 32-bit Informix on AIX is limited to 11 256Mb shared memory segments!
