Hi,

I have a problem with sapdb crashing on my regular incremental backups. This
happens reguarly, at random intervals.

If I then bring the db back online again, and run the backup script again,
it works fine.

The message in the knldiag is 
2004-06-02 22:30:02   857     12821 TASKING  Thread 857 starting
2004-06-02 22:30:02 30303 ERR 11277 IPC      create_sem: semget error, No
space left on device
2004-06-02 22:30:02 30303 ERR 11599 BTRACE   ----> Emergency Stack Back
Trace <----


Which would seem pretty self explanatory, except for the fact that the 
DB volumes are nowhere near full
LOG volumes are nowhere near full
Backup media are all "overwrite" and at time of failure usually have been
overwritten 10 - 20 times already.
Drive partitions, are nowhere near full

Each day, the incremental backup would approach 300mb ( I do nightly full
backups which keep the incremental size down ).

I havent been able to stop this, and have also had it happen before with
full backups. 

Does anyone know why this is happening, have had it happen to them, a
soltuion, or whether it is fixed in MaxDB?



I really need to do regular incremental backups, as we had a memory error a
while ago where sap/the OS just DELTED it's log volume, half its config
files, and some of it's data volume (ie, we lost everything up until our
previous montly full backup),
However I also cannot have the database shutting itself down all the time.
