Problem IT38875 Status: Closed

MEMORY CORRUPTION IN CDR MEMORY POOL WHEN CDR_MEM=2 USED

product:
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - 
Problem description:
When ER is defined across multiple platforms and replication is
happening on multiple tables, then we can see memory
corruption errors occurring with different assert
failures/warnings to be seen on the target server within the CDR
Memory pool (CDRmp).

We see this memory corruption only when we are running with
CDR_MEM=2 configuration.

times since last print to the log

Comment
As per my previous remark, please suggest the customer to use
CDR_MEM=0. This is not required in the 14.10.xC6 release onwards
as the functionality is supported automatically.
