Rootdbs gets filled
Dear All,
I need ur help. I have IDS 9.3 on sun solaris 8. My Informix server is going for a toss. I am attaching my onconfig file for ur ref. My users are connecting thru java. They are opening a lot of connections, when i do onstat -g ses, i get around 2000 sessions as a result of which the rootdbs gets filled, i have added 4 new chunks, but still it gets filled. We cannot continue with the work. I am stuck up, not sure what size to increase. What shared memory parameters need to be set. By default informix allocates additional shared memory. Please advice.
Best Regards,
lloyd
My IDS server is DB1
