Alarm for New virtual shared memory segment

Hello,

I was wondering if there is any way for Informix to alert us if it
"Dynamically allocated new virtual shared memory segment". I tried
getting the ALARMPROGRAM to alert, though it seems that this action
does not trigger the ALARMPROGRAM. Any ideas?

16:17:26 Requested shared memory segment size rounded from 640000KB
to 655360KB
16:17:26 Shared memory segment will use large pages with intimate
shared memory (ISM) if available
16:17:27 Dynamically allocated new virtual shared memory segment
(size 655360KB)
16:17:27 Memory sizes:resident:9961472 KB, virtual:20185088 KB, no
SHMTOTAL limit
