Hello Nils,

the communication packet between the DBMServer and a DBMClient has
a limit. For DBMServer commands which may produce a large amount of 
data (like sql_execute or backup_history_list) we have implemented
a "fetch" command (sql_fetch, backup_history_listnext).

For the command medium_getall unfortunately no "fetch" command 
exists. If the amount of data (the number of media definitions) exeeds 
the size of the communication packet the error  "-24987, ERR_TOOSMALL: 
packet size too small for answer" will occur.

Please decrease your number of media definitions with the DBMServer
command medium_delete or edit the file <rundirectory>/dbm.mmm.

Also you should change your backup strategy to avoid the growth of
the media definitions.

Regards Bernd

PS: The database parameter _PACKET_SIZE does not matter in this area.
