Table 5 Known issues and workarounds
WorkaroundIssue
Install the lsof depot on the host system and copy the
/usr/local/bin/lsof file into the container.
Legacy lsof command fails inside HP 9000 containers.
Upgrade to Java 1.4.2 for such applications. It is usually
possible to change the application startup script to point
to new java version.
If the application has an incompatibility with Java 1.4, try
upgrading to the latest version of Java 1.3. In some cases,
specifying */java -noopt in ARIES configuration file
helps.
Some Java 1.2 and Java 1.3 applications (such as TIBCO)
might fail to run inside HP 9000 containers.
Contact HP for a fix or workaround.UDP broadcast messages might not reach the container.
This issue is frequently encountered when using TIBCO
rendezvous agent inside the container.
Contact HP for a fix or workaround.Communication between containers on the same system
does not honor subnet mask when selecting source IP
address.
Set the number of CPU VPS to 1 in Informix configuration
file along with ARIES configuration -mem_fence for
Informix binaries.
If the issue still persists, activate strong memory ordering
in ARIES by configuring <path to Informix DB
server install dir>/* -mem_order
-mem_fence.
IBM Informix Dynamic Server hangs intermittently inside
an HP 9000 container.
Restart the database after specifying -mem_fence in the
ARIES configuration file.
If the issue still persists, activate strong memory ordering
in ARIES by configuring <path to Progress DB
server install dir>/* -mem_order
-mem_fence. Using -spin at the startup of Progress
database, might help reduce the performance impact of
enabling strong memory ordering.
Progress datavase server might hang or crash inside an
HP 9000 container.
Use the -mux 0 parameter at the startup of Progress
database.
For information about how to use the parameter, see

P22598
Progress database sometimes reports an error, SYSTEM
ERROR: muxfree 24 not owner
Set the parallel_automatic_tuning parameter to
FALSE.
Oracle database server crashes when the
parallel_automatic_tuning parameter is set to
TRUE.
Set the parallel_threads_per_cpu parameter to 1.Oracle database server sometimes crashes when the
parallel_threads_per_cpu parameter is set to a
value greater than 1.
Enable strong memory ordering in ARIES by configuring
<path to Oracle DB server install dir>/*
-mem_order –mem_fence. This might, however, incur
a performance overhead.
If the ORA-0600 error still persists, contact HP for support.
Oracle database server sometimes crashes with ORA-0600
errors, or reports ORA-0600 errors to the application.
