137.0. "log files location" by ATYV00::61569::coutant () Tue May 06 1997 12:03

Hi,

My customer wants to choose where LNX and WEB Worker put their log files. 
Will it be possible rather soon?

Why LNX 3.2.2 needs shmmax 250 times bigger than LNX 3.0.8 (from 
installation guide)?

A remark:
When you click on the right button mouse in a folder without menu LNX 
crashes.

There are no plans to make that configurable.

Is that true? Did this come from the install guide?

Thanks for this one. Will be fixed.

137.2No, 256 times biggerATYV00::61569::coutantTue May 06 1997 20:0521
Hello Jos,

>>There are no plans to make that configurable.

Could you put it on the wish list?
In my opinion can be done easily for the WEB Worker.
The WW creates a lot of files in /tmp

See page 25
No, that's not true (21474833647). So, it is 256 times bigger!

Patrice,

The value for shmmax is as recommended by Oracle and Informix. It is a
fictive value which ensures that the rdbms will put the SGA in one segment
in shared memory.
The allocation of multiple segments of shared memory for the SGA caused
problems for Oracle in the passed.

Regards,
Jos
