Title: RE: WebSphere problems on AS/400 temporary storage increasing.

Thanks Bleddyn,

I was afraid of that. I have a call open with ASSIST and all they provide is lists of PTFs which we have already got e.t.c. They are aware that it is a problem which renders our websites useless. We are about to upgrade one of our servers to V4R5M0 and Websphere 3.5 today to see if it eleviates the problem. I will let you know how I get on.

Regards,

Clive.

Clive unprotected use is one of those things that you have to get used to it
seems :( Its down to the SQL server jobs and the SQL being used by WAS,
although there may also possibly be a memory leak or code that needs
tightening up. I see exactly the same with WebSphere Commerce Suite and when
running WAS 3.5.2. I did take up the issue with IBM at one point on WCS, and
over the course of a year they never came back with any good reasons as to
where all the space goes apart from SQL usage. In WAS 2.X you will have more
of an issue because the jobs are in process on the HTTP server, so to clear
the resource you have to end the webserver.

I have seen recommendations for disk space mentioning the temporary store
usage. I also get to the point where an IPL is the best way to clean it all
down because stopping and starting isn't giving me all the space back.

Thanks Bleddyn

3 * AS/400 170 V4R4M0 Websphere 2.03. We run 4 instances and intermitantly
are seeing current unprotected used increase until an IPL is needed the only
way to stop it increasing is to ENDTCPSVR *HTTP HTTPSVR(*ALL)
Has anyone else seen this ???? This happens 10 - 15 times a day on each
AS/400 ?

Clive.
