Instance is down although there is process attached to shared memory

While trying to start the instance INSTANCE001, getting below error, where cache.shid file doesnot contains anything.

This is in a Linux server.

Any help is appreciated.

$ ccontrol start INSTANCE001INSTANCE001 startup failed: Instance is down although there is process attached to shared memoryYou can get the shared memory ID in cache.shid filethen run 'ipcs -m -a' to see the number of processes still attached.

Any useful clues in cconsole.log file?

What does 'ccontrol stop INSTANCE001' report?

You might need to force the instance down, but perhaps best to consult WRC first.

Manish, IMO you really need to open a support ticket with InterSystems about this kind of issue. DC isn't a substitute for the excellent support that InterSystems WRC can offer.
