RE: Informix online shmat error !!

Check your release notes an see the suggested values for your kernel parameters Then verify the values in your installed kernel Never had this type of error but it seams clear that your kernel is short in MAXMEM Contact Informix support for further detail on what to do. Probably the Informix online is down so it may be a good time to increase MAXMEM before trying to bring it back on. -----Original Message----- From: Joel QUIDORT [mailto:joel.quidort@branchur.fr] Sent: Monday, July 19, 1999 6:37 AM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Informix online shmat error !!
