Re: Onbar - a few funnies
Posted in 2004
There are some kernel parameter "suggestions" in the release notes:
"$INFORMIXDIR/release/en_us/0333/IDS_7.3" or a similar file name. Try
setting these. Hope this helps.

The first shmdt error occurred at 12:46:05 but the first lline in
bar_dbug.log is time 12:46:06 and is the onbar -b -L 0 line. It
certainly seems to be the case that the shmdt errors precede begin and
complete backp messages for the dbspaces by about 1 second.
