Re: IDS 11.70 FC1 Crash

Posted By: Art Kagel

In Response To: IDS 11.70 FC1 Crash (MOHD FADZIL JUSOH)

Mohd:

Your client has several problems that I can see:
1- The physical log is VERY small at 8196 K. The engine is recommending
making it nearly double that. I would go even further and make it around
30MB.
2- This is a very early release of 11.70 and has several bugs in it. Three
in particular cause the engine to allocate more virtual memory over and
over until the machine's memory is exhausted. One thing you can try
immediately is to set SHMTOTAL to something around 70% of available
memory. But the best option would be to upgrade to v11.70.xC9 or later or
v12.10.xC5 or later.

I would open a support case with IBM for this anyway. If your client is
not on IBM support, you should get them to renew support.
