Re: IDS GE license restriction limits warning messages...
You have two messages there. One is caused by SHMTOTAL=0. apparently the
message doesn't make sense. But it's a fact that the version you have has
memory limits.
The other message is caused by IFX_LARGE_PAGES=1 and the engine was brought
online with that in the environment (as the output from onstat -g env
shows).
Regards.
