Bug 43268

GemStone/S

SPC Monitor startup failures on ftok( )

On AIX, startstone will occasionally fail due to a problem with the startup of the shrpcmonitor process.  The SHRPCMON log will contain the following error message:

GemStone could not retrieve the segment key using ftok(). path = /opt/gemstone/locks/<lockname> prodid = 0, error = .
[SpcMon trace]: ... cache creation failed ...

Workaround

No workaround, but a subsequent startstone will usually work.
