Re: IDS GE license restriction limits warning messages...

Jacques, After mistakenly admitting that this worked, I noticed the same error messages still appearing in the log whenever I startup the engine. IFX_LARGE_PAGES environment is already set to 1. cat /proc/meminfo shows the following HugePages settings: HugePages_Total: 0 HugePages_Free: 0 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB I changed RESIDENT from "-1" to "1" and bounced the engine but the message still appears. My shared memory settings in ONCONFIG: RESIDENT 1 SHMBASE 0x44000000 SHMVIRTSIZE 1024000 SHMADD 8192 EXTSHMADD 8192 SHMTOTAL 0 SHMVIRT_ALLOCSEG 0.000000,3SHMNOACCESS cpu,num=1,noage On Thu, Dec 2, 2010 at 10:28 AM, jrenaut <jprenaut@yahoo.com> wrote: > On Nov 30, 4:08 pm, June Nebab LKINY <jne...@idealcut.com> wrote: > > On a new install of IDS 11.70 UC1GE on Red Hat Enterprise 5 32 bit with > 6GB RAM.
