semaphore tuning
--0-422229996-1106261911=:2197 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii We are running Informix9.4-UC4 on Solaris 9. We are getting intermittent semctl: errno = 22 errors that are causing assert failures. Our current kernel settings for semaphores are: set semsys:seminfo_semmap=64 set semsys:seminfo_semmni=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semmns=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=4096 set semsys:seminfo_semume=64 set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=500 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967296 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=500 set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=100 Is there any recommendation to determine what to up the semaphore values to ? Which value is it, is it the semmns value ?

I think your AF is the cause of the semctl errors in the log file, not the semctl erro being the causeo fthe AF. What is probably happening is the enine coz down but some client is still trying to access the serever causing the semctl error. As others have suggested, contact your support vendor.
