Re: What does "oninit -v" do?

Edwin, oninit -v starts up the engine with verbose mode turned on forinitialisation. Since your engine was already up, when oninit tried to create the shared memory segments, it detected that they already exist so aborted the startup. You don't have to do anything, the engine is designed to prevent this from happening.
