Howdy,
I manage a mid-size Unicenter network, roughly 1800 clients, and have experienced several disturbing problems. I have contacted support on this issue but as you probably know from talking to ca Support it is like dealing with a bunch of mindless drones. Anyway my problem is as follows I have sdo 2.0.1 and it is installed on an NT Server as a local server. from there jobs are supposed to "fan out" to any or all of 30 staging servers throughout the network. I know staging servers are normally for Netware installations however, all of our remote sites are connected to the main IT Hq using 56k Frame relay connections. Not exactly a speedy connection. anyway, the problem is that after I sent a job (a simple licensing job) to 500 or so clients the SDO local server crashed and all of the staging servers are being impacted by Dialog_M (Yes I know there is a patch for this!) The cpu of the remote servers spike every 6 seconds to 100% then 0% rendering the server useless for anything other than Dialog_M. I have applied the patch to both the staging servers and the local server, and have removed the job from the local servers job list. Dialog_M still spikes. I eventually had to shut SDO down on all of the servers and that is how it will stay until I can locate a fix for this. SO, anyone have any ideas? I would greatly Appreciate any help. (Just don't tell me to apply the related patch. I have several times it does not work for us)
Thanks
