37.16 Documentation Error Regarding AIX Extended Shared Memory Support (EXTSHM)

In "Appendix E. Threaded Applications with Concurrent Access", Note 2 should now read:

|2. By default, AIX does not permit 32-bit applications to |attach to more than 11 shared memory segments per process, of which a maximum |of 10 can be used for local DB2 connections.

|To use EXTSHM with DB2, do the following:

|In client sessions:

|export EXTSHM=ON

|When starting the DB2 server:

|export EXTSHM=ON
|db2set DB2ENVLIST=EXTSHM
|db2start

|On EEE, also add the following lines to sqllib/db2profile:

|EXTSHM=ON
|export EXTSHM
