Hi all,
I'm trying to install a PostgreSQL db on FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE amd64.
It's seems I can't allocate a shared memory segment more than 2GB.
I tune sysctl ipc.shm* values but without effects.
IPC Sys5 isn't "64bit-aware" or the problem is elsewhere?
Yes, SYSVSHM is limited to 2 GB in 7.1. It has recently been extended in
-CURRENT, it will probably be MFC-ed to 7-STABLE (7.2) soon.
Aha! Well, that makes sense :)
I was wondering why I could tune up the sysctls but the call to allocate
still failed :)
For those of us who have complex dbms installations that would be VERY
useful, as RAM is cheap nowdays.
