NetWorker server hanged after approx 5 days

Hello,

NetWorker server hanged after approx 5 days and it is necessary to restart it.

I always find this message in daemon.log: nsrd RPC error: Unable to accept client connection: Too many open files

OS Tru64 5.1B-5

NW 7.6.1.7

root@ds46001a:/nsr/logs# ulimit -a

core file size (blocks)     0

data seg size (kbytes)      131072

file size (blocks)          unlimited

max memory size (kbytes)    8154488

open files                  4096

pipe size (512 bytes)       8

stack size (kbytes)         8192

cpu time (seconds)          unlimited

max user processes          65536

virtual memory (kbytes)     4194304

It is not possible to set up higher or unlimited amount of file descriptors, because of Tru64's OS limitations.

Thank you for any ideas.

Regards,

Edo

There used to be a bug in B1 which I'm not sure in which version was fixed with open files (you have B5). system ulimit does not mean that one is used for proces... edit startup script (/etc/rc2.d/S95networker) and add ulimit line there.. eg:

#!/bin/sh

# installed by postinstall on Tue Nov 26 15:06:55 MET 2002

#

# Default locale

#

LANG=C

export LANG

ulimit -n 4096

[skip]

If that doesn't help, increase ulimit in startup script (note that for this took effect you must restart NW using script).

NetWorker hanged again, so it didn`t help.

Any other idea?

I think you should monitor whether there is an ever-increasing number of file descriptors being opened during these 5 days. Do you have lsof on there?  This would allow you to see if file descriptors being opened and never closed is really the issue or whether it is something else.
