Re: Segment locked!

The restart problem is due to the fact the engine is failing to close properly, and not releasing the memory. How are you shutting down the engine, what is running when it is closed? You don't mention the OS but SHMBASE 0xa000000 usually means 'let OS choose SHMBASE'.

The online log is segment locked addr=0xa000000, size=100663296 mt_sum_init cann't create resident segment PLEASE HELP, TIA. (The onconfig contained SHMBASE address as above when the problem occurred but documentation says it should be 0x0A000000L I changed it in onconfig to correct SHMBASE address but still problem persists) Mukund ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
