ANR8286W (AIX)
Unable to initialize Shared Memory driver - insufficient memory.

Explanation

Because the operating system rejected a memory allocation request, the server cannot start communications through the Shared Memory protocol.

System action

Server operation continues, but the server cannot accept sessions from clients using the Shared Memory protocol.

User response

Ensure that there is sufficient paging space for AIX®. You may also use SMIT to determine if the number of applications is causing a memory shortage. It may be necessary to cut down on the maximum number of client sessions by changing the MAXSESSIONS option in the server options file.
