Thread: V7.0.3 on Solaris 2.7

Do you know where I can find the doc related to share memory setting so I
can modify /etc/system before I start the server?

Thanks.

You find the all information about How to Increase Shared Memory Segments on
Solaris in this link

http://docs.sun.com:80/ab2/coll.47.8/SYSADV2/@Ab2PageView/43079?DwebQuery=shmsys&oqt=shmsys&Ab2Lang=C&Ab2Enc=iso-8859-1

hi jean,

after installing postgres before doing initdb add the
following statements in the /etc/system file and
relink the kernel or give 'touch /etc/reconfigure' and
reboot the system.

forceload: sys/semsys
forceload: sys/shmsys
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=268435456
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=20
set semsys:seminfo_semmap=250
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=1024
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=500
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=500
set semsys:seminfo_semume=100

this makes the shared memory segments increase to
128MB. postgres does not start for minimum buffers
also with the default kernel configuration on solaris.

try ur luck and mail if any problems..
