Janet,
'Status'<"Resolved" in most of the database performs full table scan
regardless if you have indexed on status or not. Given the amount of data in
your table that may well be the reason for the memory problems.
The fastest way to resolve this is to create index on Closed Time and change
the query to 'Closed Time"=$NULL$ - it will show you all open items ...
fast. If you decide to do so you have to add filter to null Closed Time when
item is re-opened.

How much memory does your system have, and how large does the arsystem
executable grow to? On the table that you are hitting, how many rows
are in that table, and how many open tickets are in this table? Lastly,
what query is your escalation using to find the open tickets?

Ok, let me ask something else related to my issue. Does anyone have a
recommendation of the best way to update all open tickets every 5
minutes other than an escalation? The escalation seems to fill the
memory up and kill the server and my interval does not work correctly.
Thanks

Looking below it looks like you are on a Sun V240. What OS Version
"uname -a" and what is your "ulimit -a" values. Also check your disk
space "df -k"

Subject: Memory issue on sybase ARS 6.0.1
Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix a memory issue where the
arserverd process grows so that the processes die with malloc errors.
It
seems to be related to escalations that I have updating tickets every 4
or
6 minutes. I have opened tickets with BMC but our version is not really
supported.
