Hi Jeff,

 

Do I reboot the master or the master and the media servers or just the media
server ???  

 

This is happening on 2 off my SAN media servers.

 

The master and my main media server appear to be OK.

 

Thanks,

 

Dominik

Haven't seen it in relation to NBU but if you are sure that the semaphore
parameters are all adequate it may be that something stopped abnormally and
left semaphores or even shared memory segments in use at a memory address
that NBU wants.  In NBU 6.x there is a database instead of flat files and it
is Sybase.   Most modern databases use a combination of shared memory
segments and semaphores for control.

 

You can use the ipcs command to examine what semaphores/shared memory
segments are in use.   You can use ipcrm to remove any.  WARNING:  Deleting
shared memory segments or semaphores that are still required by a running
application can cause your system to crash.  

 

If you're not sure what can be cleared a reboot will clear both IPC types.

Anyone seen this on a Solaris 10 server ????

 

# ltid -v

# Error in getting semaphore

#

 

Ltid keeps on dieing and it complains about semaphores. My other Solaris 10
servers are fine but I have two with this issue.

Both use different hardware and no you don't need to tune the kernel on
Solaris 10 as it's defaults are much bigger than anything Symantec
recommend.

 

Hope someone can help.

 

Thanks,

 

Dominik
