Getting - ds_ipcgetnext - timeout waiting for mutex

[memrinal]

Hi All,
I have a server shared container which is used to process all the rejected records in the whole project. this container is also used in Paralle jobs. the whole setup was working fine till the jobs were being run individually. Now i am trying to run all the jobs from a script, but getting the following type of error, wherever the container is used.

AddrExtract.BR#0.Error_Account_Records.Error_Account_Records-Input.Rejectfile_field: ds_ipcgetnext - timeout waiting for mutex

Why is this happening.
TIA

Are you attempting to run several jobs calling the same container?

Search the forum for "mutex" and "SPINTRIES".

Yes T42,
I am using the same container in several jobs.
Ray i perfomed the seach and now i know the reason for the problem. But i am still not clear on how to resolve it. i can contact the Ascential support for solution but that is a time consuming process. If i can know the specific changes that i need to make in environmental variables (or anything else) to overcome this, then it would be much better.
As mentaioned earliar, the version of DataStage is 7.0 and the server is on UNIX Box, HP-UX 11.11i
