/var filling up - truncating activity_log

[Andrew Merritt_2]

If you are running A.29.00 then you definitely need to upgrade!

There is a known problem in that release that does lead to the activity_log file filling up. The problem was fixed in the A.30.00 release for 11.11.

However, as the A.29.00 release is nearly 4 years old, you should upgrade to the A.49.10 release plus PHSS_33918. That will certainly fix the activity_log problem, as well as number of other known problems.

Here is another attempt at awarding points. You all earned them because all of your advice and recommendations were good.

Thank you.

I will download the stm upgrades. Because this is a validated production server I will need to jump through some change control hoops before I can load it. Thank you

Hi Glen,

From memory, you need to select the number of points for each reply, and then hit "Confirm" or something similar before the points are registered.

I figured it out - there was a button to the lower left which says "Submit Points" (it took me long enough to figure out).

Do I submit a hardware call on my CPU and disk (I'm not sure there is anything wrong with them - even though stm shown a yellow and grey highlighting)?

I'd install the upgraded OnlineDiags first, and then see if you can run the info tools on the CPU and SCSI disk. The 'Information Killed' just means that the Information tool was killed for some reason the last time it was run.

If there's actually anything wrong with the hardware there would be EMS events being generated.
