Hi Foo Could it be an application problem. It sounds like an application is adding data to a possible type 1 file as a log or a como file or even a print job and it is growing to an enormous size consuming resources. There might be some other application that has gone rogue. Can you identify

Kevin, We had the same problem when migrating UV from DEC in one data center to HP managed in another data center, even though it was a honking big HP. The sys admins configured memory memory similar to how their 20 other unix machines were set up. The trick was to configure most memory for

Hello Kevin, I have seen many good posts in reply to your situation already. File-sizing, (and therefore disk IO) is a key/critical area. What kind of file systems do you have? How much memory swap space do you have? What are the Virtual Memory AIX tuning parameters set to? IBM Hardware - AIX

I saw /tmp mentioned in one of Scott Richardson's posts. UniVerse uses /tmp for building select lists and sorts. If it is undersized, it can cause page faults like you are seeing. How big is /tmp? It might pay to monitor it's usage. It can be as critical as having adequate swap / paging
