To All Info-Vax,

        I have a question on system shareable libraries.  We have an image
that requires the use of sys$library:dismntshr.exe.  Yesterday, when trying
to execute the image, the following error message was returned:

$ run vista
%DCL-W-ACTIMAGE, error activating image DISMNTSHR
-CLI-E-IMGNAME, image file DUA0:[SYS0.][SYSLIB]DISMNTSHR.EXE
-SYTEM-F-SECTBLFUL, section table (process/global) is full

According to the error message manual, this is saying that there is
insufficient global sections available for DISMNTSHR.EXE.  What I don't
understand is that DISMNTSHR is installed:

$ run sys$system:install
INSTALL> list sys$library:dismntshr

DISK$DU0VMS4:<SYS0.SYSLIB>.EXE
   DISMNTSHR;1      Open Hdr Shar     Prot Lnkbl                Nopurg

If installed shared, why does it need more sections? I am not understanding
the process here.  Could somebody elaborate or at least point to the right
manualsabout such things?

                                Thanks for your time,
                                Jonathan Eisenhamer
