This is covered in more depth in the Admin documentation, chapter 3.5. An online version can be found at: http://postgresql.readysetnet.com/devel-corner/docs/admin/kernel-resources.html Specifically, it says: "FreeBSD, OpenBSD The options SYSVSHM and SYSVSEM need to be enabled when the kernel is compiled. (They are by default.) The maximum size of shared memory is determined by the option SHMMAXPGS (in pages). The following shows an example of how to set the various parameters: options SYSVSHM options SHMMAXPGS=4096 options SHMSEG=256 options SYSVSEM options SEMMNI=256 options SEMMNS=512 options SEMMNU=256 options SEMMAP=256 " --Rick
