Hi!
I'm trying to user zhe -B commandline option to postmaster to increase the
number of buffers. Works ok on my SUN IPX (SunOS 4.1.3) even with a large
number of buffers. On the SUN LX (also SunOS 4.1.3) it returns:
hermes% postmaster -B 128
IpcMemoryCreate: memKey=123585129 , size=1292928 , permission=384IpcMemoryCreate: shmget(..., create, ...) failed: Invalid argument
postmaster -B 64 (default) works, but seems to run slow .. !
(patch 100726-17 is installed)
Any clues ?
- Holger

on sunos 4, to get shared memory segments >1048576 bytes you need to
reconfigure your kernel with an increased value for SHMMAX. you ought
to be able to change it by (e.g.) dorking SHMSIZE in sys/shm.h or by
redefining SHMMAX in conf.common/conf.c. read your kernel config doc
before doing anything.
in solaris it's a bit easier, you just tweak a file in /etc..
