Integrator Swap Space Use Keeps Climbing on AIX in VM Frame

Greetings One and All,

Addressing VM shops running the Cloverleaf Integrator.

We are running both CIS5.7R2 and CIS5.8.5 on AIX 6.1 TL7 SP4 on Power 7 servers in a VM frame.  Swap space is 15360 MB.

Since our migration from stand alone AIX 6.1 TL7 Power 6 servers, the integrator now continues to consume swap space, creeping up a few percent each week.  On our old servers, it remained steady.

Cycling some processes returns a percent or two but not for long.

We did follow the procedure on how to start up the engines to avoid issues with the memory and semaphore regions (in the Release notes).

We have not done any upgrades or applied any patches.

We have a Case to Lawson support but so far they have nothing to recommend.

I am asking if you folks running the Integrator under AIX VM had to make system adjustments such as maxuproc settings (for hci/hcitest) or other system parameters.

Let me know if you need more information.

Thank you in advance for sharing your experiences.
