Hi all,

Happy holidays and new years to all.

We have an issue with our upgraded production server.  Since we upgraded 
to 7.5 patch 007 (from 7.0.01 patch 008) our server crash every 30 to 40 
hours.  The reason is it runs out of resources. We noticed that the 
arserver process run over 78,000 Handles after a few days.  We identify 
the cause as being an escalation that does a run process which launch a 
batch file that runs a Java program. 

Absolutely nothing has changed on the code side (Remedy) or on the Java 
side.  When we disable the escalation, the number of Handles average 2,000 
for the arserver process.  But as soon as we enable that particular 
escalation, we see the Handles grow by almost 1,000 every hour or so to 
the point of crashing the server due to lack of resources. 
We have an opened ticket with BMC , but they are telling us its an OS 
issue.  All our servers are on the same OS, same patches etc.  We move the 
code (both Java and Remedy) on another server that runs the same OS, same 
OS patching but ARS 7.0.01 patch 008 and the Handles are stable at 2,400 
for the arserver. 
We are adding monitoring tools to the server to try to get more 
information but all points back to the arserver.
The Java code was compiled on 1.5.0_12. We recompiled it with 1.6.0_22 but 
still same problem.  We changed the Java program to make sure that the 
connections were closing properly.

Any one else have this kind of issue? any ideas?

As a Band-Aid, we are currently rebooting the server every night. 

OS: Win2003 server
ARS 7.5 patch 007
No OOB all homegrown
MSSQL 2005 remote on Win 2003
