Bringing up Online on NCR- MP RAS
Posted in 1998
Dear Folks,
I would appreciate any feedback for the following puzzling situation:
I have following error when starting Online engine.
Informix Online 5.10.UC1
NCR 3000 series with MP-RAS V3.0
Following is the error reported on the screen:
tbinit: Fatal error in shared memory initialisation
14:33:55 semop failed. errno:36, proc id 1951
Following is the entry in the log file:
14:33:55 I/O error 'read': expect 2048 actual -1 addr 0x0 errno 6 retrys 0
14:33:55 I/O error 'read': expect 2048 actual -1 addr 0x0 errno 6 retrys 1
14:33:55 I/O error , Primary Chunk '/dev/rdsk/rootdbs' -- Offline
14:33:55 I/O read() chunk 1, pagenum 0, pagecnt 1 --> errno=6
14:33:55 INFORMIX - Online Must Abort
Root chunk down
14:33:55 -- Online aborting -- us=400024e4, pid=1950, uid=10614:33:55 INFORMIX-Online Stopped
I tried to re-initalise the instance, tbinit -i, but faced the same.
Kernel parameters are OK and tuned according to the release file.
Am I missing anything ?
Thanks in advance,
Sandeep
