IBM IDS ENTRP E / 5724L2304 / B15 - IDS 11.50

You might see oninit processes running at scheduling priority 0
(super-high), potentially getting the whole OS in trouble, if
'noage' is used in any VPCLASS configuration except for class
'cpu' VPs.

E.g.  VPCLASS fifo,num=4,noage would get you 4 fifo VPs running
at priority 0.
When doing this for class 'adm', not only the adm vp, but also
some of its child processes would run at priority 0.

Startup messages in online.log would contain lines like these:

11:55:10  VP pid=10551470 priority fixed at 0
11:55:10  VP pid=16646330 priority fixed at 0
11:55:10  VP pid=21495866 priority fixed at 0

* Update to IBM Informix Server 12.10.xC8 or set the           *
* appropriate environment variable to specify a priority.      *
****************************************************************

As a workaround, if you still would like to configure noaging,
e.g. for fifo VPs, you would use INFX_MSCVP_PRIORITY env var at
server startup for specifying desired target priority, for
instance:

 export INFX_MSCVP_PRIORITY=60
