if you have a hang, truss bpsched main and see whether it's blocked
doing a msgsnd(). Do the ipcs -qA and look for CBYTES being close to
QBYTES. If it is truss the rest of the bpscheds and see if any are
attempting to do a msgrcv().
=20
Increasing the queue varies depending on OS release. For Sol 9 check
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/806-7009/6jftnqsjp?a=3Dview.
msgsys:msginfo_msgtql is the pertinant one for sol9 iirc.
msgsys:msginfo_msgmnb and others used to be relevant on previous
versions.
=20
Apparently the message passing routines have been reworked in NBU6 - I
haven't seen this myself, but it would be welcome as they're sorely in
need of it.

We had the shared memory setting set to use all available memory
and were told by Symantec to lower that figure to 6 gig and leave 2 gig
for Solaris 9 (we jave 8 gig ram). We have not adjusted any msg queues.
Where would I look and what should they be?=20

Nb 5.0 mp6 Solaris 9=20
We are having an on going issue with bpsched crashing/stopping.
When this happens all the jobs go 150. Sometimes it recovers and
restarts the jobs and other times we have to stop and start the
services. Has any one else had this issues and what you did to fix? We
have a open ticket with Symantec and they have recommend some tuning
changes, which we have done, but it still went down over the weekend.
Symantec thinks it is a resource issue. We have 8 gig of ram in the
master server and it seems to crash most often about 15 minutes in the
main backup window. We would have around 200 jobs running, with 800
queued. This has not been an issue in the past. Any ideas?
