Hi, I'm having major problems with the dsmc-process running on my dsmserver-machine. Frequently dsmc core dumps during backup processing. In the dsmerror.log this is reported as: B/A Txn Consumer thread, fatal error, signal 11 (Output from dbx included below. ) I checked the archives, where it was said that the "B/A Txn Consumer thread, fatal error, signal 11" only happens on AIX, and may be due to an interaction with NIS. Workaround is to run backup manually. I cannot see any references to passwd checking in my logs. Looks more like a threads issue. Is it possible it is running out of memory / shared memory? My problems are: - since this happens on the dsmserver machine, this also causes problems for other scripts, like the nightly database backup and disaster recovery procedures. - this is Sun system running 64-bit Solaris 8, not AIX. Is there any news about this error? I'm running version 4.1.2.0 Med vennlig hilsen Jan Berger Henriksen Senioringeni�r Institutt for Informatikk E-post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Universitetet i Bergen Tlf : 47 - 5558 4173 Postboks 7800 Fax : 47 - 5558 4199 5020 Bergen, Norge dbx: (/opt/SUNWspro/bin/../WS6U1/bin/sparcv9/dbx) where current thread: t@5 =>[1] __sigprocmask(0x0, 0xffffffff7ce08e90, 0x0, 0xffffffff7ce09cb8, 0x0, 0x0), at 0xffffffff7e31d10c [2] _resetsig(0xffffffff7e3201a0, 0x1, 0xffffffff7ce09cc8, 0xffffffff7ce08e80, 0xffffffff7ce09cc8, 0x0), at 0xffffffff7e3114fc [3] _sigon(0xffffffff7e42d780, 0xffffffff7ce09c20, 0xffffffff7ce09cb8, 0xffffffff7ce0900c, 0xffffffff7ce09c20, 0xffffffff7e422000), at 0xffffffff7e310c6c [4] _thrp_kill(0x0, 0x5, 0xffffffff7e422000, 0xffffffff7ce09c20, 0x0, 0x5), at 0xffffffff7e313ec0 [5] raise(0x6, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x1002e13e0), at 0xffffffff7e152fd8 [6] abort(0xffffffff7e2b0f80, 0x41, 0x41, 0x7efefeff, 0x81010100, 0xff00), at 0xffffffff7e13cfdc [7] __assert(0x100177360, 0x100177374, 0x2cf, 0x100177360, 0x0, 0x0), at 0xffffffff7e13d2d4 [8] mpAlloc(0x100303b20, 0x230, 0xe, 0x1003038f0, 0x0, 0x1002991e0), at 0x1000eb2fc [9] QueueTransaction(0x100308cf0, 0x1, 0xffffffff7ce09080, 0x10042d338, 0x66, 0x1002e5760), at 0x1000a296c [10] tlSetProdFinished(0x100308cf0, 0x1, 0x1002e5760, 0x0, 0x0, 0x10042dea8), at 0x1000a1e40 [11] baProcessRequest(0x8c, 0x8c, 0x100308d08, 0x1000979f8, 0x0, 0x10042c1a0), at 0x10006c6b0 [12] baRequestHandler(0x100308d08, 0x10042c1a0, 0x100308d08, 0x1002db238, 0x10016d160, 0x10042c3f8), at 0x10006bd68 [13] DccTxnProducer::HandleQueue(0x0, 0x15, 0x10016d0f0, 0x100297378, 0x1002e16ea, 0xdeadbeef), at 0x100094ad4 [14] DccTxnProducer::Run(0x10042d930, 0x1, 0x1002f7010, 0x1002db238, 0x100187030, 0x1002e5c30), at 0x100094994 [15] startThread2(0x1002e5c30, 0x100094bb8, 0x10042d930, 0x1002f1948, 0x0, 0x0), at 0x10016274c [16] startThread(0x1002e5c30, 0xffffffff7ce09c20, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x1000), at 0x100162684
