First and foremost, you should find out why
users are expierencing "improper disconnection
from the system, disrupted connection, etc".

What are the programs that they are running?
Are they in-house developed apps.?
Are they standard COTS?
Are they customized COTS?

The fact that adminstrators are observing
a rise in this problem, this should be brought
to managment's attention, the problem analyzed
and a solution implemented. The fact that a
script is currently in place is a good but
TEMPORARY measure however, to do as you ask
and prevent this from happening, you need to
get to the actual problem; and to do that, you
need to ask many questions like the ones above
and correct the "real" problem.

NAME
file2sm - shared-memory linked list data ingestion test program SYNOPSIS
file2sm fileName DESCRIPTION
file2sm stress-tests shared-memory linked list data ingestion by repeatedly writing all text lines of the file named fileName to a shared- memory linked list that is the root object of a PSM partition named "file2sm". After writing each line to the linked list, file2sm gives a semaphore to indicate that the list is now non-empty. This is mainly for the benefit of the complementary test program sm2file(1). The operation of file2sm is cyclical. After copying all text lines of the source file to the linked list, file2sm appends an EOF line to the linked list, containing the text "*** End of the file ***", and prints a brief performance report: Processing I<lineCount> lines per second. Then it reopens the source file and starts appending the file's text lines to the linked list again. EXIT STATUS
0 file2sm has terminated. FILES
No configuration files are needed. ENVIRONMENT
No environment variables apply. DIAGNOSTICS
Can't attach to shared memory Operating system error. Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun. Can't manage shared memory. PSM error. Check for earlier diagnostic messages describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun. Can't create shared memory list. smlist error. Check for earlier diagnostic messages describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun. Can't create semaphore. ION system error. Check for earlier diagnostic messages describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun. Can't open input file Operating system error. Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun. Can't reopen input file Operating system error. Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun. Can't read from input file Operating system error. Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun. Ran out of memory. Nominal behavior. sm2file is not extracting data from the linked list quickly enough to prevent it from growing to consume all memory allocated to the test partition. BUGS
