Re: SAPOSCOL running but not working-could not set new shared memory status on HP-UX B.11.31

Hi Raja,

Check SAP Note 1627564 - SAPOSCOL: Clearing Shared Memory and Updating
Saposcol  section 2 (Clearing SAPOSCOL Shared Memory Segment:)

• Use the following procedure to delete the shared memory for SAPOSCOL:

saposcol -d            (start in dialog
mode)
Collector > clean
Collector > quit
saposcol -k           
(stops saposcol)
saposcol -d            (before restarting)
Collector >
leave   (should get a message Shared memory deleted)
Collector >
quit
cd /usr/sap/tmp
mv coll.put coll.old (rename the file; this stores
the saposcol history data)
cd
saposcol                (start saposcol
again)

• If you cannot delete the shared memory segment with the above procedure
  then:
  • On Unix systems:
    • You can use 'cleanipc 99 remove' on O/S level (this will remove all the ipc
      objects for the system number 99, also for the SAPCCMSR agent)
    • You could alternatively use 'ipcrm -M 0x00004dbe', which will delete
      saposcol’s SHM, but not anything related to host agent .

This will help as it has helped me many time.

Thanks
