If you type ipcs at the unix command line you may see some segments that are still owned by informix. You must remove the memory segments and the semaphores. You must be root. Remove them by type ipcrm -m # -m # -s # -s #. Do not remove ones not associated with informix or you will crash your whole system. (this is a last resort. Don't ever bring down informix this way if you don't have to. It's like turning the switch on the computer) Chris wrote: > > We're running Online 7.13.UC1 on HPUX. > I brought the server down again; onmode -ky > and proceeded to bring up the server oninit > and recieved the following message in the log file; > > 22:17:43 INFORMIX-OnLine Stopped. > 22:17:44 mt_shm_remove: WARNING: may not have removed all/correct> segments
