Hi Litu1988,

You could try the mount command as follows;

Code:
mount -t tmpfs -o remount,nodev /dev/shm

Failing that you will probably have to go for a reboot on the server, however I would try this in a sandbox first - especially if this is running any kind of production applications.

Regards

Dave

Hi,

Time to take an other tack here, do you have an other server with the same OS etc that can be used as a sandbox?
