Hi, Does anybody have any experience of IDS2000 crashes on a HP N4000 platform running HP/UX 11.00 (September 1999 patches)?

Hello, What I would suggest you is that to turn off Kernel Asynchronous I/O if you are using it. Check your release notes whether it is enabled by default. And if you wish to turn it off, there should be an environment variable like KAIO_OFF or something, set it to 1 and start your engine. Check your release notes for exact name of the variable and proper usage. If this solves your issue and still you are insistent on using KAIO I guess you have to wait until Informix fixes it. Hope it helps.

Have you gotten a resolution on this? I am having the same proble. Here is what I get. I am thinking that there may be a correlation with the NUMCPUVPS. Let me know what you have found. I received the following error on IDS2000 FC1. This is a 4 processor machine w/ 1 gig ram. I had NUMCPUVPS set to 4. I am also getting the same error on a 2 processor machine. Does anyone have a clue as to what is causing this? 08:22:24 Assert Failed: No Exception Handler 08:22:24 Informix Dynamic Server 2000 Version 9.20.FC1 08:22:24 Who: Session(0, @, 0, 0) Thread(5, msc vp 0, 0, 9) File: mtex.c Line: 458 08:22:24 Results: Exception Caught.
