Environment

OS: IBM AIX

Resolution

Allocate more memory for the CDJ server:

How to fix memory issues with variable LDR_CNTRL

Prerequisites:
Operating System is AIX
The uxcdjsrv Dollar Universe process fails

Explanation:
LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA is an AIX environment variable to override the default 256MB data segment allocated to a process
.
export LDR_CNTRL_MAXDATA=0x40000000
=> This will allow to use up to 4 data segments, that is to say process memory limit 1G.

Implementation procedure:
The following line will enable the setting only for CDJ server startup in $UXMGR/uxstartup_gen file; then it is removed with ''unset'' command:

export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x40000000
nohup $UXEXE/uxcdjsrv $SOCIETE X $NOEUD >$UXLEX/uxcdjsrv.log 2>&1 &
unset LDR_CNTRL

This will be taken into account after the following Dollar Universe startup

Fix Status: No Fix
