Jacques, After mistakenly admitting that this worked, I noticed the same error messages still appearing in the log whenever I startup the engine. IFX_LARGE_PAGES environment is already set to 1. cat /proc/meminfo shows the following HugePages settings: HugePages_Total: 0 HugePages_Free: 0 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB I changed RESIDENT from "-1" to "1" and bounced the engine but the message still appears. My shared memory settings in ONCONFIG: RESIDENT 1 SHMBASE 0x44000000 SHMVIRTSIZE 1024000 SHMADD 8192 EXTSHMADD 8192 SHMTOTAL 0 SHMVIRT_ALLOCSEG 0.000000,3 SHMNOACCESS cpu,num=1,noage On Thu, Dec 2, 2010 at 10:28 AM, jrenaut <jprenaut (AT) yahoo (DOT) com> wrote: On Nov 30, 4:08 pm, June Nebab LKINY <jne...

If you have received this transmission in error, please notify the sender immediately and delete the transmission and all such attachments To get those messages it appears you need to have the env variable IFX_LARGE_PAGES set to 1. If that is turned on, then when trying to start up the server and create the initial shared memory segments, the oninit process will open up /proc/meminfo looking for HugePages_Free and Hugepagesize. I'm not familiar with this concept on Linux, but I would assume it is some sort of OS configuration thing. From the message you got, it would appear that we found Hugepagesize set to be 0 from our query to /proc/meminfo, at which point we would no longer attempt to use that feature.
