Re: [nv-l] [nvcold] memory leak ?

[Gareth Holl <gholl@us.ibm.com>]

This should be resolved in Fixpack 2..
The relevant APAR number is IY56958. I just had a customer with a very
similar problem who applied Fixpack 2 and his feedback was that it worked.

Subject	[nv-l] [nvcold] memory leak ?

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
