SunRay User Community:

We have about 30 fairly heavily uses SunRays running on Sun X4100M2 hardware running Solaris 10.

If we don't reboot this machine every week or so, we get errors of the form:

Gecko: 2348 Gdk WARNING **: shmget failed: error 28 (No space left on device)

I have read somewhere that for fairly active SunRay usage that you can hit the maximum of 128 shared memory segments that default Solaris 10 supports. In fact, if I run 'ipcs -mA' I find that I have about 128 shared memory segments and many of them have NATTACH=0 which, I think, means that they are no longer active.

In pre-Solaris-10, I think properties like this used to be controlled by /etc/system, but I'm a bit confused as to how to increase the max-shm-ids property in Solaris 10.

Does anyone know how to do that and have a recommendation for a more reasonable setting for that property with fairly active SunRay sessions?

Thanks for your consideration,

John
