cannot initialize rootdbs
A user on IDS 7.31.UD1/Solaris 8 couldn't run 'oninit -i': shared memory creation failed (error 156, shmat EMFILE 'check SHMSEG', later shmget EEXIST 'already exists'). Replies suggested tuning Solaris kernel shared-memory/semaphore settings in /etc/system per the $INFORMIXDIR/release notes, clearing leftover segments (onmode -ky, check ipcs, or reboot), and verifying SHMBASE. After kernel changes, initialization got further but failed with 'chunk must have owner-ID informix and group-ID informix'; the advice was that the raw devices behind the symlinks (/dev/rdsk/...) must be owned informix:informix with 660 permissions, not just the links. No confirmation from the poster is recorded.

And did you?
Could be that you're trying to bring up too big an instance, or that a
previous instance wasn't cleared from memory, or that there is an instance
already at that address.
Try running onmode -ky a couple of times before retrying the oninit, or
reboot the server.

You will find, in most cases, very useful machine/platform specific
information in the text files in your $INFORMIXDIR/release directory.
In addition to what Paul said about /etc/system, check your informix
machine or server notes in the release directory for the needed
/etc/system changes/additions. In addition to what Obnoxio said, check
your ipcs after such a failure and make sure your memory segments are
cleaned.
Check the release directory for information, such as is "SHMBASE
0xa000000" the right shmbase for your setup? I just checked, you are
probably safe on that or you might get a "shmat: [EINVAL][22]: shared
memory base address illegal" error.
good luck,
Norma Jean

Although the link '/informix/chunk/rootchunk' has ownership informix:informix
this may not be true of the underlying raw space '/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s1' (or
indeed '/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s3'). It is these that need to be owned as
informix:informix and have permissions of 660 the ownership of the links is
irrelevant.

Guess you should also change
your permission flags for link to chunk to
'lrwxr-xr-x' instead of 'lrwxrwxrwx' if after changing owner-ID and group-ID
to 'informix' the problem remains

The message "mt_shm_remove: WARNING: may not have removed all/correct

initialize not properly. Then: reboot the box (you can see ipcs -m and
ipcrm if you don't want reboot), change owner-ID and group-ID for
