DFM.log grows up to 3 Giga in 3 Weeks

Hello,
im using cisco works on a windows server system  every 3 or 4 Weeks my backup fails because of  "no disk space".
Searching for the reason i found that DFM.log is too big. After removing  this file the backup runs propperly.
Removing this file needs to stop/start crmdmgtd.
Looking into DFM.log shows many lines of discovery output and i suppose it is the output of a debug command.
in DFM>configuration>logging  logging level configuration is not set.
Month ago i had a problem with DFM and got help from Cisco by an opend Case. i remember that during the work for
this case i was instructed to setup few  commands  like :
dmctl -s DFM put  ICF_TopologgyManager::ICF-TopologgyManager::DebugEnebled TRUE
Maybe i have to reverse  this commands, but not able tu use dmctl commands.

sorry, when i  wrote "i am not able" i wanted to say that i am not familiar with the usage of
the command dmctl. In my last posting i gave only an example of a command.
the full listing of the commands i have done is this:
1.      Enable the Discovery Logs.
Go to NMSROOT/objects/smarts/bin then execute the following command.
       dmctl -s DFM put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::DebugEnabled TRUE
       dmctl -s DFM put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::LogDiscoveryProgress TRUE
       dmctl -s DFM put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::TraceRule TRUE
       dmctl -s DFM1 put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::DebugEnabled TRUE
       dmctl -s DFM1 put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::LogDiscoveryProgress TRUE
       dmctl -s DFM1 put ICF_TopologyManager::ICF-TopologyManager::TraceRule TRUE
is it possible to set  all to  false  without  stopping the normal work of TopologyManager ?
thank you for your Help

  • DFM.log ISSUE

    Hello,
    I'm running Ciscoworks LMS 2.6 on win2k3 server.
    Recently C:\ is running out of space, and investigating on this I've found a big DFM.log.030 (about 5 GB) in folder C:\Program Files\CSCOpx\objects\smarts\local\logs.
    Logrot or Logbackup didn't help to reduce the file. I've tried to reboot the server but nothing happens.
    DFM version is 2.0.10.
    Could anyone suggest how to reduce the file? Can I just simply delete it?
    Thanks for your support.
    Ciao,
    Massimiliano.

    Hi ,
    Logrot should work  if not then  Yes you can simply Truncate the log fie :
    Go to : NMSROOT\CSCOpx\log>logrot_trunc
    e.g :c:\program files\CSCOpx\log>logrot_trunc DFM.log.030
    Thanks--

  • Transactional log grows abnormally to 160GB

    Dear All
    I am new to SQL database . Im my production server transactional log grow upto 160GB and only 7 GB left in the file system
    Like dont want to add the any space in the file system and we have everyday full backup schedule.
    Is there any permanent solution. I want to take the proactive action before my database hang.
    Is also check the note 421644.

    Hi Tarik!
    Probably the fact that your TLOG is so high is because you did not back it up at all in the beginning or you just did not back it up for some time. This does not mean that its allocated space is full, and in fact, if you defined a proper backup policy you can shrink it to a more reasonable value as explained in SAP note 363018 (section E.b ).
    Now, in order to avoid having it grown so much again is to ensure that you perform TLOG backups regularly (the frequency depends on your business needs, you should take your own conclusions depending on your system activity); check the autogrow settings just in case a single grow means a huge increase (imagine you set 120 GB!).
    In case that you have any problems still e.g. because the TLOG grows even though you back it up regularly, you can check if there is a open transaction that prevents it to be backed up, as you already know note 421644.
    Good luck!

  • SCCMReporting.log growing under %AppData%\Local\Temp

    Tried to lookup this from the net, but couldn't find anything.. so the problem is that my reporting services account on the reporting services point is having this logfile called SCCMReporting.log under %AppData%\Local\Temp and it consumes 30GB of disk
    space... Any idea where this all is coming from or how to disable the entire log? Everything is working fine on the reports.

    Already tried searching the registry, no go.
    After stopping reporting services service, I could delete the file and obtain the used space but when the service is started again, the logfile starts growing.
    grab a copy of the logfile whilst it's still small, so you can analyse it

  • Ons.log growing enormously in 10g on RHEL3

    This log is growing at between 5g and 10g per weeek.
    The entries are as follows :-
    05/02/05 12:42:26 [4] Local connection 0,127.0.0.1,6100 missing form factor
    05/02/05 12:42:26 [4] Local connection 0,127.0.0.1,6100 missing form factor
    05/02/05 12:42:26 [4] Local connection 0,127.0.0.1,6100 missing form factor
    On my system the location of the logs is here :-
    /oracle/product/10.1.0/ccd/opmn/logs
    Thanks
    George

    I've run into this problem myself and have made the suggested change. The tns listener is no longer running crazy and adding to the log. The original oracle instance seems to be behaving, as well.
    Thank you very much for the tip.
    Follow-up question: I'm not well versed on this type of installation. I installed 10g under ...../product/10.2.0/Db_1 and then tried to install the http server. Docs indicated that it wants to have it's own ORACLE_HOME. So be it. It's in ...../product/10.2.0/Db_2. Now the questions arise:
    1) What's common between the two?
    2) Do I need to switch from one set of env vars to the other for startup/shutdown?
    3) /etc/init.d/*ora now do not look like they will work.
    Which doc covers this type of installation - and is this not recommended?
    My "play DBA" days were over several years ago.
    thanks again.

  • SBO-Common_log grow up to 10 Gig!

    Hi friends!
    how can i drop/decrease log of SBO-Common DB?
    at one of our clients SBO-Common_Data.mdf is of 64Mb, but SBO-Common_Log.ldf is up to 10Gb!
    i've read many other forums and i didn't find there any agreement between points of view. Someone tolds that it should be done by LogBackUping and then LogShrinking, others say that it can be done by DB-detaching, deleting ldf-file and then attaching..
    could u publish here your methods of decreasing SBO-Common log size?
    P.S.: i've done it by 2nd method described before
    thanx!

    Hi Zsolt & Alexey,
    Just to mention (mainly for other readers in this forum):
    The SBO-Common database is - as you certainly already know - only used to store binaries like the OBServerDLL.DLL, upgrade package for the SAP Business One client, the Add-On installers and some additional things (info which license server to use, cahced list of DBs in this DB server etc.).
    I.e., there's absolutely no need to keep the log information...
    Besides using SQL Server Enterprise Manager you can simply run SQL queries to apply suitable settings re size of the logfile:
    /* Reduce size of the logfile to xxx MB.... */
    /* Please note the particular commands need to be run one-by-one... */
    <b>/* Please replace "TMPE-Common_Log" with the "filename" of your logfile (in the DB properties; not the name in the filesystem...)*/</b>
    PRINT 'Process <Shrinking Databases> starts'
    USE "SBO-Common"
    GO
    DBCC SHRINKFILE ("TMPE-Common_Log", 1)
    GO
    /* Limit the max. size of the logfile to e.g. 500 MB
      (only works, if current size is less than 500 MB); not sure also about dependencies on number of logged on users etc... */
    ALTER DATABASE "SBO-Common"
    MODIFY FILE
    NAME = "TMPE-Common_Log",
    MAXSIZE = 500MB
    GO
    /* Sets the size of the logfile to 500 MB
      (no growth needed, if max. size is 500 MB => no fragmentation)*/
    ALTER DATABASE "SBO-Common"
    MODIFY FILE
    NAME = "TMPE-Common_Log",
    SIZE = 500MB
    GO
    /* Prevent logfile growth */
    ALTER DATABASE "SBO-Common"
    MODIFY FILE
    NAME = "TMPE-Common_Log",
    FILEGROWTH = 0MB
    GO
    PRINT 'Process <Shrinking Databases> has finished'
    However, you will need to get rid of the existing 10 gig logfile first, but as I mentioned regardless how you do that, you won't loose real "data"...

  • JRM.log growing back rapidly

    I have scheduled logrot for the jrm.log file to run everyday but still jrm.log is growing back to 10 mb everyday. Even for the testing, I ran Logrot which reduced the size of jrm.log to 0 kb but after few seconds it again grew back to 10 mb. Could someone please help me in this regards?

    The jrm.log can only be rotated in offline mode.  That is, you need to run logrot.pl -s so that Daemon Manager is shutdown first.

  • EM Application Log and Web Access Log growing too large on Redwood Server

    Hi,
    We have a storage space issue on our Redwood SAP CPS Orcale servers and have found that the two log files above are the main culprits for this. These files are continually updated and I need to know what these are and if they can be purged or reduced down in size.
    They have been in existence since the system has been installed and I have tried to access them but they are too large. I have also tried taking the cluster group offline to see if the file stops being updated but the file continues to be updated.
    Please could anyone shed any light on this and what can be done to resolve it?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Jason

    Hi David,
    The file names are:
    em-application.log and web access.log

  • SQL Server Database - Transaction logs growing largely with Simple Recovery model

    Hello,
    There is SQL server database on client side in production environment with huge transaction logs.
    Requirement :
    1. Take database backup
    2. Transaction log backup is not required. - so it is set to Simple recovery model.
    I am aware that, Simple Recovery model also increases the transaction logs same as in Full Recovery model as given on below link.
    http://realsqlguy.com/origins-no-simple-mode-doesnt-disable-the-transaction-log/
    Last week, this transaction log became of 1TB size and blocked everything on the database server.
    How to over come with this situation?
    PS :  There are huge bulk uploads to the database tables.
    Current Configuration :
    1. Simple Recovery model
    2. Target Recovery time : 3 Sec
    3. Recovery interval : 0
    4. No SQL Agent job schedule to shrink database.
    5. No other checkpoints created except automatic ones.
    Can anyone please guide me to have correct configuration on SQL server for client's production environment?
    Please let me know if any other details required from server.
    Thank you,
    Mittal.

    @dave_gona,
    Thank you for your response.
    Can you please explain me this in more details -- 
    What do you mean by one batch ?
    1. Number of rows to be inserted at a time ?
    2. or Size of data in one cell does matter here.
    As in my case, I am clubbing together all the data in one xml (on c# side) and inserting it as one record. Data is large in size, but only 1 record is inserted.
    Is it a good idea to shrink transaction log periodically, as it is not happening itself in simple recovery model.
    HI Mittal,
    Shrinking is bad activity yu should not shrink log files regularly, in rare case if you want to recovery space you may do it.
    Have manual chekpoints in Bulk insert operation.
    I cannot tell upfront what should be batch size but you can start with 1/4 th of what you are currently inserting.
    Most important what does below query return for database
    select log_reuse_wait_desc from sys.databases where name='db_name'
    The value it returns is what stopping the log from getting cleared and reused.
    What is version and editon of SQl server we are talking about. What is output of

  • System Events Log growing in size

    My Imac is 4 months old & the Syatem Events Log is already 10 meg. in size. I have this feeling that because of it Imac starting time slightly increased (I switch off at nights).
    I tried utilities like maintenance & Onyx to delete the file without success. Is there a way to delete it? What will happen if I trash it manually?
    Appreciate any suggestion.

    OS X will automatically compress and discard old logs, IF you let it run during the night, or if you put it to sleep during the night. If you do a cold restart every morning, OS X won't automatically run the cleanup scripts.
    If you like to power it off when not in use, do the following:
    - on an admin account, open Terminal
    - enter 'sudo periodic daily weekly monthly', without the quotes, then press return. You will be asked for your admin password.
    - wait a few minutes until the command completes
    This will force the OS X maintenance scripts to run. It's not critical how often you do this, but once per month will be OK.
    Alternatively, there is a way to reschedule the daily, weekly and monthly scripts to run during the day.

    I was just investigating an issue involving my computer taking a LONG time to resume from suspend (at least 30-60 seconds from when I press the button until I see the screen) using s2ram.

    And, since I just resumed my computer from suspend, the following comes right after the above code:

    [ 92042.713] (II) fglrx(0): UVD feature is enabled(II) fglrx(0):
    [ 92042.979] (II) fglrx(0): Hot-plug event occurs on device: 1:0:0
    So Xorg must be repeatedly outputting that first section of code when I resume it from suspend which prevents the system from reaching the desktop, then it finally stops and things continue on.
    I'm kind of a noob when it comes to what I should do in this situation.
    Anyone heard of this or have any ideas what to do?
    Thank you!

  • "An error occurred during activation. Try again." Can't log into iMessage on Macbook for past two weeks.

    iMessage worked fine on my Macbook until about two weeks ago.  I can use iMessage for gMail, but my iCloud account is inactive and I get the error message "An error occurred during activation. Try again." when I try to log in with any apple ID.  It works fine currently on my iMac and my iOS devices.
    I have tried many suggestions, including checking the serial number, various time & date configurations, trying an alternate Apple ID, restarting, signing in and out of iCloud, and inspecting the keychain.

    This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Sign out of iMessage on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
    Step 3
    Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.

If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
    Step 5
    Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    Step 6
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
    The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
    Step 7
    Select from the menu bar
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    and click
    Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    Close the preference pane.
    Step 8
    Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
    Step 9
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
    Step 10
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you start up, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
    If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still doesn't work when you restart in "normal" mode, stop here and post your results.
    Step 11
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Step 12
    Reinstall OS X.
    Step 13
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support.
