Hi, In /usr/spool/sql/ipc/db:DIS the SAPDB stores 'tag-Files' of IPC resources. After a crash you have to remove this directory (and all others found in /usr/spool/sql/ipc), since the corresponding IPC resources (SharedMemorySegments and Semaphores) do no longer exists. The directory is used to cleanup IPC resources after database has stopped (especially if stopped unexpected...). A good solution is to add a boot time script that does an 'rm -rf /usr/spool/sql/ipc/*' since the ids stored with the tag-Files could already (even if very unlikely, but you never know...) used by some other applications or other SAPDB instances. So a db_clear on your DIS instance could result into some unexpected behaviour of those other applications... CU jrg
