Yesterday, I upgraded our 6.1.4.1 server to 6.1.4.3.

All hell broke loose last night and the server crashed-and-burned (called at 
2am).

Unfortunately, the crash seems to have wiped a lot of the activity log for the 
time period when the failures started to occur (q actlog&nbsp; doesn't show 
anything beyond 19:44 yesterday)

Fortunately, the TSMManager console captured a lot of the error messages, which 
look like this:

11/8/2010 9:54:42 PM ANR0101E bfdedup.c(8813): Error 11 opening table 
"BF.Dereferenced.Chunks".
11/8/2010 9:54:53 PM ANR0101E bfdedup.c(8813): Error 11 opening table 
"BF.Dereferenced.Chunks".

11/8/2010 9:55:36 PM ANR0101E bfdedup.c(9533): Error 11 opening table

11/8/2010 9:55:37 PM ANR0101E bfdedup.c(9533): Error 11 opening table

11/8/2010 9:55:39 PM ANR0101E bfdedup.c(9533): Error 11 opening table 
"BF.Queued.Chunks".

I can only guess from the module name is it was trying to perform dedup 
processing.&nbsp; This is strange since none of the storage pools are defined 
as dedup.

How can I turn off dedup processing?

I also saw this message:

11/8/2010 10:16:15 PM ANR0130E dbieval.c(891): Server LOG space exhausted.

which is also a little odd since I have 60GB specified for the active log and 
the archlog filesystem has >300GB free which was available when they called at 
2am.

It should be noted that I also turned back on ALLOWREORGTABLE (which I promptly 
turned off before restarting the server), thinking the previous problems with 
this option had been resolved and I had adequate archlog space.

Any ideas?
