[Spacewalk-list] ? Failures Cloning Channels with spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle

[Boyd, Robert]

Thanks Avi,

I tried what you suggested and got some minor improvement -- the tool runs longer before things blow up.   I tried increasing the memory limits even more -- but that doesn't seem to make any difference.   It's still eventually blowing up the same way, and the logs you suggested looking at don't show anything interesting around the time of the failures.

Any other suggestions?   I could keep increasing the memory limits even farther, but I'm not sure that's a good idea.

Thanks,
Robert

Can someone point me to a prioritized list of logs I should be looking at to find the nature of what’s dying on the back end?  I suspect there is a java resource failure or some other error and would like to track it down and fix it rather than resort to manual/scripted channel by channel cloning( which might fail in the same way).

You may want to increase the memory available to Tomcat and Taskomatic: 

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E58680/html/sw22-issues-memory.html

This feels like a Tomcat issue to me, the logs are in /var/log/tomcat6 on the Spacewalk server. The Taskomatic logs are in /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log

Cheers,
Avi
