Category: Domino Server

Release: 6.0.1

Platform: AIX

signal 0x00000004 is SIGILL, an illegal instruction. This usually occurs because of a stack overwrite of a function header. When that function tries to return to the caller it instead tries to return to a bad address and crashes.

Once Domino crashes, the server console is no longer available. The "Domino Halted. Type 'quit' to Terminate/Cleanup" prompt is posted directly to the terminal window and the 'quit' response is then read directly from the terminal. It will then properly terminate all processes and do any other necessary cleanup.

If you choose not to (or for some reason cannot) type 'quit', then you can also use "nsd -kill". Run this from your data directory and it will cleanup everything. Using kill -9 will only terminate the processes (and is painfully slow as well!)
