One thing to make sure of is that the two configurations have a unique SERVERNUM and DBSERVERNAME. Informix calculations the shared memory addresses by multiplying the base address by the SERVERNUM. If it's not unique, you would get the "shared memory already exists" message. So hopefully your fix will be a quick change to the tbconfig file of one of the servers! Good luck, Tracy W.
