Hi,

I see this error in the db2diag.log file after giving the db2start command.. DB2 UDB 8.1 FP 15.. any idea how I can fix it or what's causing this? It seems like the error showed up after increasing some of the values of the kernel params. Thanks!

This explanation is not very useful.

Try creating some db and then see if this error goes away. Or just ignore it.
