Hello,

We get regulary "Short Term memory allocator is out of memory" messages on our NW 6.5 SP1 two node cluster, after some days of Backup Express Backup (2.1.5d). After this happens, sometimes the module TSAFS has allocated to much memory (greater 500 MB)!

Is this a bug of TSAFS (currently using 6.50.06 4 December 2003)?

Thank you very much in advance

I've got the same problem with Arcserve 9.0.1 on NW 6.5sp1. It also won't
backup the Arcserve database (confirmed bug by ca). I'm going to backrev to
the version in tsa5up13.exe and see what happens.

(You can LOAD TSAFS with a command switch to set the max amount of RAM
to between 1 and 25 % of total free... This will reduce the 500
Megs...) Default is 25% of total RAM.

Type TSAFS at the console to see the settings, and what is settable.
