Situation Description

The amount of storage currently being used by NetView has reached the defined warning value.

 

Suggested Actions

Storage utilization for NetView has reached the warning value defined for this situation. The total storage utilization for NetView is calculated by accumulating the storage utilization of individual NetView tasks.

64M is the default NetView region size. We recommend a warning value that is 80% of the NetView region size, e.g. 52430k.

One of the NetView tasks might be accumulating storage due to the following conditions:

  • A program loop
  • A program not freeing storage properly
  • Unexpected storage utilization that exceeds best practices

Issue several TASKMON or TASKUTIL commands to see if the storage utilization is dropping. The TASKUTIL command shows the NetView command that is running on the task. If the storage utilization remains higher than best practices for an extended period of time, stop the task or notify the system programmer.

Note: Consider putting the TASKMON or TASKUTIL command on a timer to monitor NetView task statistics.
