guys I'm getting this error and my disk got 127Mb of garbage. is there a way to stop getting this error...?
 
this is exactly what I'm getting:

/opt/omni/bin/xomni(122): 18867 Memory fault (coredump)
pid 19176 receive a SIGSEGV for stack growth failure.
Possible causes: insufficient memory or swap space,
or stack size exceeded maxssiz.
memory fault (coredump)
 
hi,

This message normally means the process tried to grab more memory than the kernel allows .
what version of HP and level ( i.e. 32bit/64 bit) are you running ?

How much memory have you got installed ?
what is the kernel parameter maxssiz set to ?

What software are you running and are they upto the latest level?

How much swap space have you got ?


This message could be due to , maxssiz not set high enough, the application running has a memory leak and needs a fix , you haven't got enough memory

hopefully thius will give you a start , and post some ionfo for the questions so we can analyse further

HTH

 

Thanks for such a fast reply....


The version I'm running is hp-ux 11, memory size 512mb,
the server is a HP-L1000
the main application is HP-OMNIBACK 4.1 (latest) actually that´s the main operation of the server to back up other servers. SAM show the following in the SWAP:
MOUNT CURRENT MBYTES
DIRECTORY TYPE PRIORITY AVAILABLE ENABLE
-----------------------------------------------------------
/DEV/VG00/LVOL2 DEVICE 1 1024 OF 1024 now/onboot

hi,

if you run swapinfo -tm how much swap space is used
also if you run kmtune -l | more and search for maxssiz
what is that set to ?
also what are maxdsiz and maxtsiz set to ?
