Network receive failed

Hi, I have a problem at a clients machine, where we are getting a lot of these messages in the online.log 13:52:41 listener-thread: err = -25587: oserr = 0: errstr = : Networkreceive failed. They are all connecting directly to the server, and using shared memory connections. The server settings are: (the server has 2 physical cpu's) Informix Dynamic Server Version 7.30.UC5 SERVERNUM 1 # Unique id corresponding to a DynamicServer instance DBSERVERNAME mimed # Name of default database server DBSERVERALIASES mimed_tcp # List of alternate dbservernames NETTYPE ipcshm,4,120,CPU # Configure poll thread(s) for nettype NETTYPE soctcp,1,100,NET # Configure poll thread(s) for nettype DEADLOCK_TIMEOUT 90 # Max time to wait of lock indistributed env. RESIDENT 0 # Forced residency flag (Yes = 1, No = 0) MULTIPROCESSOR 1 # 0 for single-processor, 1 formulti-processor NUMCPUVPS 4 # Number of user (cpu) vps SINGLE_CPU_VP 0 # If non-zero, limit number of cpu vpsto one There are only 130 shm connection on this box, which doesn't come close to what is available (4 x 120) Beside for the obvious, what else can I look at here ? The internal network seems to be ok: Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll ni0* 0 none none 0 0 0 0 0 ni1* 0 none none 0 0 0 0 0 lo0 4608 loopback localhost 274249 0 274249 0 0 lan1 1500 192.6.1 myhost.co.za 563470 0 652249 0 0 lan0 1500 192.6.2 myhost0.co.za 143 0 204 0 0 Disclaimer: http://196.33.167.70/disclaimer
