Re: PG 7.0.3 & RH 7 IPC problems?

Thank you Tom. Here are the results.
[root(at)atl01371 linux]# ipcs

------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key shmid owner perms bytes nattch status
0x0052e2ca 36864 postgres 700 144 5
0x0052e2c1 26625 postgres 600 1104896 5
0x0052e2c7 37890 postgres 600 66060 5

------ Semaphore Arrays --------
key semid owner perms nsems status
0x0052e2ce 6144 postgres 600 16
0x0052e2cf 6145 postgres 600 16

------ Message Queues --------
key msqid owner perms used-bytes messages

These values don't seem to change from one moment to the next although
there are of course varying numbers of backends running at any given
moment.
Since I am unfamiliar with this output I hesitate to use icprm to remove
something which ought not be removed.
I have not used kill -9 on anything. :)
