As a result they cannot be started without first running sysctl from the command line or updating /etc/sysctl.conf with something like: kern.ipc.shmmax=134217728 kern.ipc.shmall=16384 >How-To-Repeat: Update system, install and configure anything that requires a karge amount of RAM, then attempt to start. >Fix: Define larger and more reasonable default values for kern.ipc.shmmax and kern.ipc.shmall. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
