[nv-l] [nvcold] memory leak ?

["Davis, Donald" <donald.davis@firstcitizens.com>]

About once a week I get an alert from ITM advising me "'The percentage of available swap space is low 49%"

nvcold is always the problem. nmon indicates it has aquired over 1.2G of memory.

I have a a few rulesets in ESE.automation that judiciously test smartset membership.

I have re-written many of my custom tools to not use nvUtil.

But still, I have to recycle nvcold about once a week. 

The memory use, after a recycle, drops to arond 1M, but over time it will continue to grow.

 

If I do not act quickly to recycle nvcold it will core dump, ovwdb will hang and require comleteley recycing NetView daemons to recover.

 

Is there a fix for nvcold?

 

NetView 7.1.4 SP1

AIX 5.2 ML02

Platform: 7026-6H1 (660)

6way 750Mhz

6G RAM  4G paging space

 

 

Thanks,

Don Davis
