I'm not a Solaris admin so I don't know whether what you have done is
correct or not.
The code is pretty straightforward even if the system commands are not
If you look at the nvpagerd.alog you printed it says
IpcKey: 0x6e064538
which is the important thing here. Because to create the queue we did a
shmget using that key, and it must have worked because you see the message:
06/01/05 13:38:57 Allocated shared PAGE_Q, size = 500
But when we tried to get the semaphore for it with semget using that same
key, we got a -1 return code.
head->Semaphore = semget(IpcKey, 1, IPC_CREAT | S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR
| S_IRGRP | S_IWGRP);
The 28 is an errno set by the system call, but I haven't the faintest idea
what that means on Solaris.
Sorry, but that's about all I can tell you.

Please respond to

I have installed a fresh instance of Netview 7.1.4 using the Framework
install method (TMF 4.1.1) and patched with
Netview FP03. Upon startup the nvpagerd process fails. When I look in the
nvpagerd.alog file the error seems
to point to the inability to get semaphores. I have modified the
/etc/system file on our Solaris 8 server to
increase the number of semaphores and rebooted. That did not work. Any
help is appreciated.
