Transaction table overflow - user id nn, process id nn
A database server process attempted to gain access to the transaction table
whenno entries in the shared-memory table were available. The user ID and
process ID of the requesting database server process are displayed.
tx_offwtlist() - userp 0xn not on wait list - txp 0xn
OnLine detected an error in the wait-list management for a transaction. No
actionis needed. OnLine handles the situation internally. A user process that
wasexpected to be on a wait list for the specified transaction was not on the
list. The user process is identified by the hexadecimal value of the user
structurein shared memory. The transaction is identified by the hexadecimal
value of the transaction structure in shared memory.
Unable to abort transaction: tx 0xn
OnLine neglected to send a signal to a database server process directing the
process to abort. The address of the transaction entry in the transaction
shared-memorytable is displayed as a hexadecimal value. An administrator
should initiate an immediate shutdown to preserve database integrity and
consistency.
Unable to start SQL engine
OnLine was unable to start a database server process. Possible causes could
include the following:
■The user table is full.
■A long transaction has exclusive access to the logical log files.
■OnLine is in shutdown mode.
■All logical log files are full.
This message might also be received by administrators whose OnLine is
connected to a network using IBMInformixSTAR. If this is the case,
additional causes could include improper settings for the environment
variables SQLEXEC orINFORMIXDIR.
Unexpected End of Logical Log
The logical log has become corrupted. OnLine cannot initialize. Perform a
data restore from archive.
