If i give command ipcs -a -m on my machine (SUN E10k) i obtain some entry with no-entry on DTIME column. Have you some explanations ? Thanks in advance !!!

The DTIME column gives the time of the last detach from a shared memory segment.

Perhaps the entries that you are seeing simply have been created, attached but

a detach is yet to occur? If the segments are being created by the same application

it might just be a characteristic of the applications behaviour.

It's quite legitimate for an application to not detach for a long time. Of course, if the

application doesn't call shmdt it might be that DTIME isn't updated when the application

exits.

I would check which application(s) is creating the segments.

Regards,

Peter.
