3232.0. "TRM in CPU-bound mode" by ZPOVC::CHINGYUE () Mon Sep 06 1993 04:33

    Customer has been running TRM successfully until 3 weeks ago.
    PT ran successful before TRM too. 
    The problem is, TRM which normally takes less than 2 hours to 
    complete, is still in a CPU-intensive mode after 4 hours !
    After the process was terminated with a STOP/ID command, SMLOG*.TMP
    are found in the manager's SYS$LOGIN while the log file in OA$LOG
    only contains the usual batchjob-startup steps.
    
    SMLOG1.TMP 
    ----------
    
    ALL-IN-1 File Cabinet Verification Repair Program
    =================================================
    Version 2.4-K603-1
    
    BEgining Phase 1 at 04:05 AM -- scanning users' personal file cabinets
    ======================================================================
    A summary of the repairs made to the personal file cabinets is given
    at the end of this phase.
    
    SMLOG2.TMP consisted of users' file cabinets which I'll omit unless
    it's required.
    
    SMLOG3.TMP
    ----------
    
    Begining of Phase 3 at 5:21 AM
    ==============================
    This phase will try to correct the usage counts of shared documents
    
    SDAF record and all references to missing RMS text file deleted
    Key = OA$SHARA247:ZUUVD963V.WPC
    ......
    
    Notice that SMLOG3.TMP doesn't list the SUMMARY OF SHARED DOCUMENT
    STATUS IN OA$SHARA
    
    The ALLIN1 manager account has the following quota limit;
    WSDEF=1024
    WSQUO=2048
    WSEXTENT=20480
    PGFLOQUO=80000
    ENQLM=1000
    
    I have increased the ENQLM from 100 to 1000 but the job still did
    not complete within 5 hours yesterday. Anyone has any idea why ?

3232.1He doesn't even know what day it isIOSG::MAURICEDifferently hirsuteMon Sep 06 1993 09:1912
    Hi,
    
    I remember there used to be problems if TRM was scheduled with a subset
    of SDAFs. Was this the case. Also there was a problem if TRM was
    scheduled and instead of leaving the SDAFs blank, they were filled in
    but not in order. I can't remember when they were fixed, but I don't
    think you have the latest version - and I can't remember what the
    latest version for V2.4 is. What a memory!!
    
    Cheers

3232.2Yes, SDAFs filled. No, in orderZPOVC::CHINGYUEMon Sep 06 1993 15:367
    Yes and No.
    TRM was scheduled with SDAFs entries in the order of OA$SHARA,
    OA$SHARB,OA$SHARC and OA$SHARE. Somehow OA$SHARD has never been
    open.
    What should I do now ? Patch it up to K605 ?

3232.3Safe to swap ?ZPOVC::CHINGYUEThu Sep 09 1993 02:3811
    It's me again.
    
    My un-patch ALL-IN-1 IOS v2.4 doesn't go into a loop when TRM is 
    run. It works too with SDAF entries filled up in reverse order.
    
    Is it advisable to replace their OA$SM_FCVR.EXE, dated 2-AUG-1992
    with mine dated 30-MAY-1990 ?
    
    Please help.

3232.4Things to tryIOSG::MAURICEDifferently hirsuteThu Sep 09 1993 09:3917
    Hi,
    
    I wouldn't do that if I were you. Instead I would try and reduce what
    TRM is doing in order to get a handle on the area that is causing the
    problem. For example I would try the following in turn:
    
    a) Run TRM without bodyfile checking, to see if it completes in that
       case.
    
    b) Run TRM in verify mode
    
    c) Run TRM to repair just one DAF (the one the log files indicates it's
       looping on.
    
    Cheers

3232.5Working...ZPOVC::CHINGYUETue Oct 05 1993 02:4511
    TRM was successful when 
    
    1)	Run without body checking
    2)  Repair done only on the smallest SDAF
    3) 	Generic batch queue with 2 execution queues
    
    I've asked customer to enable repair on all 4 SDAF on the next TRM run.
    
    Thanks, Struat.
