Re[2]: Error 208: Shared memory problem
Well, this sounded interesting so I did: onmode -I 208. It didn't appear
to do anything, but I just noticed this in my message log:
10:20:51 TrapError set, errno = 208, session_id = -1
I think it means that when I get a 208 error, an af.xxx file will be produced.
So, how do I turn it off? Bounce the db?
Thanks, Dianne

}If this is a 7.2 installation, you can try the following -
}onmode -I 208. This will produce an af.xxx file containing the stack when

Is this documented - I cannot see it in the 7.2 Online Admin Guide.

How does this work?
