| |
For some reason shared memory is not being enabled on my system running kernel v2.4.0 (on RedHat v6.2, with all updates applied).
Per the documentation I have this line in my /etc/fstab:
none /dev/shm shm defaults 0 0
Yes, I have created this subdirectory:
# ls -l /dev | grep shm drwxrwxrwt 1 root root 0 Jan 7 11:54 shm
No complaints are seen at startup, yet I still have no shared memory:
# cat /proc/meminfo total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached: Mem: 130293760 123133952 7159808 0 30371840 15179776 Swap: 136241152 0 136241152 MemTotal: 127240 kB MemFree: 6992 kB MemShared: 0 kB Buffers: 29660 kB Cached: 14824 kB Active: 3400 kB Inact_dirty: 37872 kB Inact_clean: 3212 kB Inact_target: 4 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 127240 kB LowFree: 6992 kB SwapTotal: 133048 kB SwapFree: 133048 kB
Is there some configuration option which I missed? Some trick not mentioned in the doc?
Thank you.
