[UV] printer memory segment. was: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded

2008-08-04 Thread Stevenson, Charles
Does anyone know the history of that printer memory segment
nomenclature?

 It seems that all memory errors are printer memory errors on Universe.
 Jerry

That's true.  Generally doesn't have much to do with printers,  but a UV
process's private memory.   

Examples:
See POST.STATUS's 3rd column for phantoms.
unix icps -map | grep 0xaceb.
See smat -p (aka ANALYZE.SHM -p)
Look up printer memory segment in UV docs.


Undoubtedly, there was a reason for calling it that way back when.
Was it originally only a spot where printer output was buffered?

Sounds like a question for David Meeks or Glen Herbert, answer to be
archived by historian Dawn Wolthuis.

RE: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded

2008-08-04 Thread Stevenson, Charles
Jerry,

1. 1st thing I'd do is look in the recent changes for a construct
functionally something like this:

   X cleared   (wrong place for X to be initialized.)
   Start-outer-loop
* X should be cleared here, but isn't.
  Start-inner-loop
 X:= [stuff](X grows)
  end-inner-loop
   End-inner-loop

You say it runs fine by itself, but not in it's rightful setting, so
maybe the var is in common and persists through multiple executions w/o
proper reinitialization.  


2.  I recently had a memory leak where executions got slower  slower,
until the uv process aborted.  Different error message from yours.
Unix's ps -l  was interesting. Size column showed it growing.  It
turned out ULIMIT config param was set too high. Joel Yates @ IBM had me
reset it to the default.  Hadn't been an issue until we changed from
HP-Risc/HPUX11.11/UV10.1.16  to HP-itanium/HPUX11.23/UV10.2.6.
Thank-you, Joel.

Last night during our month end batch process it aborted the proc when
we got Available printer memory exceeded during one of the programs. I
ran the program this morning and it ran without getting the error, same
program, same data files. Can anyone tell me where I could look to keep
it from doing this? It has always run without problems in the past, it
only runs at month end, but there were some minor changes made to the
program that shouldn't have caused any problems and don't when run by
itself.

The answer is very simple.  When they were looking for a name, they chose the 
name of the largest structure in this particular shared memory segment 
(apparently user shared memory segment would have been confused with private 
memory segments).  The largest structure in the printer shared memory segment 
is the sixteen printer channel definitions that you set with SETPTR commands 
(eighteen, actually, when the two internal channel structures are considered).

Since we have 300 gigabytes available for uvtemp, we don't think that is
it. Our whole database is about 17 gigabytes I am told.
