 Re: infdump These are diagnostic files that IBM technical support can analyse as an aid to find the cause of failures They should not be created whenever you start and stop the engine. They should only be created if the engine aborts abnormally.

| Re: infdump what about the parameter in onconfig dumpshmem. is it responsible for this shared memory dump. in manual i found that if dumpshmem is set 1 then it will dump shared memory for every startup and shutdown. do we need to set this. i request you to give some suggestions regarding this madu TBP wrote: > Paul Watson wrote: > >> scottishpoet said: > >>> These are diagnostic files that IBM technical support can > >> analyse as > >>> an aid to find the cause of failures > >>> > >>> They should not be created whenever you start and stop the engine. > >>> They should only be created if the engine aborts > >> abnormally.

The manual (Admin's Ref) also says: DUMPSHMEM indicates that shared memory should be dumped on an assertion failure. So, shared memory only is dumped when an assertion failure occurs. The original question suggested that they were getting a dump on server shutdown; that should not be happening. If there isn't already an explanation here in c.d.i, then contact Tech Support.
