Yes, this is what's occurring, but there can be ill effects. Under at least some circumstances, your open file references can get corrupted. Process 1 opens files A, B, & C to 1, 2, and 3. Process 2 comes along, and opens files B, C, & D to 1, 2, and 3. Process 1 writes data on file handle 2, intended for file B, but writes it to file C. Sleepless nights and glowering bosses ensue.

The solution is to make any invocations to universe from cron PHANTOMs. This gives them their own user id & process group.


You get the message "Printer Segment Removed" if you invoke universe when
already running universe as another user.

I usually get this message  when I sh out to the shell from the Universe
command language prompt, su to another user code, and then invoke universe
by using the uv cmd from the shell prompt.

The printer segment itself is an area of shared memory allocated to each
Universe user. I have noticed no ill effects when I have had the message.

Subject:    [U2]PRINTER memory segment removed


Dear all,

 Im using unix script, looping calling a UniVerse Basic Programs in
background process. For each calling, there is a message prompt "PRINTER
memory segment removed" but if i not using the background process , the
error solve.
 When i PORT.STATUS, it show only one job. If using "ps" , i able to
grep all the related process with different pid. Juz wondering is  this
message is due to to UniVerse process using the same port but when having
different pid bind to the same port ? And is this message is a critical
error message ? like will causing the file / hardisk will destroy easily ?

Thanks and Regards
