Re: [ADSM-L] TSM Client upgrade on AIX

Good morning Pam,
We encountered errors backing up filesystems
with large numbers of files until we set the root user ulimits to unlimited.
That fixed the problem but can have other consequences, obviously.
Do you know if your AIX admin tried changing the ulimits?
Regards,

[ADSM-L] TSM
Client upgrade on AIX

Hello,
Recently one of our AIX administrators upgraded the TSM client to 7.1.4.4
on her servers. Many of them started receiving errors like
calloc() failed: Size 31496 File ../mem/mempool.cpp Line 1092
I looked this up and the indication is that the AIX server could not supply
enough memory to TSM to complete the backup. We opened a ticket and were
told to try memoryefficientbackup with diskcachemethod. This did not fix
the issue.
In frustration the administrator reinstalled a TSM client version of 6.4.2.0
and is no longer experiencing the memory problems.
Any thoughts?
Thank you,
Pam
