Zombie Kernel Process

[wloban]

I keep receiving an indication in my JDE.LOG on the enterprise server that kernel processes are going to zombie and that processes don't exist. I called JDE and was told that this is nothing to worry about. Of course they were unable to explain why the errors are happening. Can anyone shed some light on these errors?

When you check SAW in OW do you see these funny USERID eg &*%$#@ and one of the columns will indicate zombie. At least for us, i found the JDE.INI on the AS400 Kernal defn # 6 Call Object Kernal --- MaxNumberOfProcessors = 30 and as soon as the number of processors exceeded the number 30, i will start seeing users logged in with these funny userId and no Kerlnal Processors assigned to these users. I understand that 1 processor per 6 users will be ample, which was good for us, however when we increased the number to 35 , i have not seen the zombies in SAW. I do not know for sure but hey it worked for us. I hear that memory usage suffers with inceasing this number.
