SUMMARY: shmx error

Original question:
---------------------

When running memx I get the following message:

shmx: Remove old log files
shmx: Can not start report generator, test aborted

memx runs ok but not the shmx portion.


When I run shmx by itself I get the same message:

shmx: Remove old log files
shmx: Can not start report generator, test aborted


This has all been running fine until just the other day. The only things
that are different is a new system board and some new memory.

Anybody have any ideas? This is a DS20E, 4.0F, pk#3. We've had problems
with the memory and the system board and memx has been helpful to us in
finding errors.


Resolution:
-------------

I called Compaq on this. Turns out that there is a limit on the number of
LOG files that can exist. I had deleted all the #LOG_MEMX_n files (n = 1 to
9) but didn't notice that there were also #LOG_SHMX_n files. I removed
those and the shmx portion of memx ran fine.
