'Parallel job reports failure (code 139)

Post by Azzuri »

Hi All, I recieved the error Parallel job reports failure (code 139) in any job that I would run. After investigating I found that one of the volumes ran out of space. The volume below was at 100%:

/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02 3.0G 2.8G 92M 97% /home

I Removed some files from my user folder and we are up and running again but as you can see we are at 97%. My question is why is datastage using the home user folder in processing. I couldn't find any reference to it. If I know what folder DS is writing to I can repoint to a larger volume

See the our file system below:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 2.0G 602M 1.3G 32% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 244M 33M 199M 15% /boot
none 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev/shm

What's the Config file used in the failed run got to say? Where are the nodes pointing for resource and scratch disks? The config file used for the failed run will be in the director logs and will list the directories.

Hi All, I did find one variable called HOME=/home/dsadm when looking at the runtime environment variables and thinkng that this folder is defined in that volume. Is there any issue if I remap the HOME environemnt variable to a different folder.

Scratch Space and Dataset fodlers that the config file is pointing to have plenty of space. This is not an issue.

It would point somewhere else.

Without your providing the actual statement there's not much we can add to that statement of the bleeding obvious.
