BODS error - DF using pageable cache with <3536 MB> buffer pool.

1838 Views

Hello All,

I have just finished a Data Services 4.0 install on an AIX server with a DB2 database. When executing jobs with pageable cache, I am receiving an error message:

Error log:

Data flow <DF_dataflow> Cannot start thread

and the Job log stops with this error:

Data flow <DF_dataflow> using PAGEABLE cache with <3536 MB> buffer pool.

Process to execute Data Flow <DF_dataflow> is terminated due to error <50703>.

I tested running one of the smaller jobs by changing to 'In-memory' cache and it completed successfully but when changing some of the more complex jobs, the job is still hanging at the same spot.

I've checked the ulimit -a settings to ensure they match the install document and checked that the space in the pageable cache directory is sufficient.

Also, this client did a POC in a 3.2 DataServices environment (same AIX and DB2 architecture but different servers) and the same exact jobs which are failing in the new DS 4.0 environment are able successfully execute in the old environment so that makes me believe it is something that I may have missed in the configuration of the new system and not in the job itself.

I see several SDN threads where people have had this same issue but have not found any resolution listed. Does anyone know the fix to this issue?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Regards,

Keerthi
