Powerpath Memory Leak?
I've recently rebuilt a server (Dell PE2950) running 2003 R2 x64 with:
Powerpath 5.2 (not SP1)
Navihostagent 6.28.2
Plus of course all the non-EMC stuff.
We've been seeing an issue where weekly, and to the day but not the same time, the amount of "Available" ram showing in Task Manager under "Physical Memory (K)" absolutely plummets to around 15mb in a very short amount of time, and the server become unresponsive to the point that the power button is the only answer.
I know there were "issues" with Powerpath and MPIO causing memory leaks, and whilst fairly vague, my question is does this sound plausible?
The MPIO driver that shows as installed is 1.21.3790.2191.
