Hi All,

I have a situation where the IDS-731UD4 instance I run on HP-UX 11 is
failing after a cold restore.

I do not have time to perform another restore without serious business
ramifications.

The output from the log file is: the last lines:
09:47:30 Could not create single shared memory segment with resident and
non-re
sident partitions. Proceeding to create 2 shared memory segments instead.
09:47:32 Segment locked: addr=0xc1841000, size=683679744

09:47:32 Event alarms enabled. ALARMPROG =
'/apps/informix_ids/etc/ifx_alert.sh'
09:47:38 DR: DRAUTO is 0 (Off)

1104KB)

However:

informix@machinename$ onstat -
shared memory not initialized for INFORMIXSERVER 'newworld'

The results of the oninit -v are:

I realise that it is unlikely that too many people are out there right at
this moment, however, I have been working on this issue so long now that I
am loosing track of time, Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get this
online, I do have a vague recollection of an issue like this in the past
that was resolved quite simply. I am attempting to contact IBM Support on
the issue although it is a moderately complex task out of hours when I
cannot locate the support contracts etc...
