NET connection problems

We are constantly encountering net connection problems, where should we start to investigate? machine: SNI RM600 V5.43 / INFORMIX V7.12 UC1 up to 70 PCs connected via Ethernet We are running 2 CPUVPs and 4 NETVPs on a 3 CPU machine with 512 MB memory, this gives us 4 tlitcppoll threads & 9 tlitcplst threads. The machine has 3 ethernet boards We have KIO support and 1 AIOVP only & that looks good. ( 2 KIO queues, as we have 2 CPUVPs, load is balanced)) Connection type is TLI This is our NETTYPE Statement NETTYPE tlitcp,4,40,NET # Override sqlhosts nettype parametersThis is some of the other $ONCONFIG lines, maybe influencing this behavior SERVERNUM 1 # Server Number DBSERVERNAME I4080001 # Database Server DBSERVERALIASES s40800011,0.s1,1.s1,I4080002,0.I1,1.I1,0.I2,1.I2 # List ofalternate dbservernames MULTIPROCESSOR 0 # 0 for single-processor, 1 formulti-processor NUMCPUVPS 2 # Number of user (cpu) vps SINGLE_CPU_VP 0 # If non-zero, limit number of cpu vps to one NOAGE 0 # Process aging AFF_SPROC 0 # Affinity start processor AFF_NPROCS 0 # Affinity number of processors Yes, I have to test NOAGE and AFF_*, as it is supported on our platform according to relnotes I will also test with MULTIPROCESSOR set to 1. I see headers in onstat -g nt? showing q-exceeds >0 and I do not know, what that means exactly like this: #netscb connects read write q-free q-limits q-exceed 29/ 137 16888 1954810 1882049 9/ 10 10/ 10 41/ 0 I followed the thread in c.d.i "problem with shared memory connections", maybe we have a similar problem ??? Please, Art and Paul, do you have some tips for me? What should I look for in getting around that problem? Where can I get some help? We do have a support contract with INFORMIX, but I think that I am just overlooking something & this maybe an easy config problem only.
