Fbackup intermittent issues/SAM_br_msgs filling up rapidly

Hi everyone.

I have been having a few intermittent issues with fbackup as of the last week. When I get in to work I see /var at 100% full. The file /var/tmp/SAM_br_msgs is rather large at 400mb! Its okay once this this has been trimmed. The fbackup writer processes are still running and needs to be killed.

Has anyone else seen this issue with SAM_br_msgs getting very full and the fbackup behaving strangely?? Is this a software or hardware error.

Thanks for your help in advance.
Bruce

Hi,

Which sam patch do you have on your system ?
s700_800 10.20 Cumulative SAM/ObAM Patch

This issue seems to be introduced with PHCO_19990.

Latest sam patch would be: PHCO_22268

Hi again,

Are there any other clues in that file SAM_br_msgs ?
