Hello,

We recently noticed that our / partition on one of our oracle RAC servers was filling up.  While investigating I noticed that snap manager for oracle seems to be dumping files under /opt/Netapp/smo named java_pidXXXX.hprof.  These files are all around 90 meg.  It appears that this has something to do with java being run with the "-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError".

I'm very new to this environment but from what I'm being told, there is no issues with SMO, it's functioning correctly and as it always has.  I am a little concerned though that these dumps are being generated due to an out of memory error.

Someone did mention that they thought during the initial setup they may have turned on debug logging but they aren't positive and they don't remember how it was turned it on.

Has anyone else ever run into this?

We are running: SMO 3.1 SnapDrive 4.2 Oracle 11g RHEL 5.4 Using both NFS and FCP ASM is mounting the FCP luns

Thanks, Dan
