  • 1.  Disk write error when output is SINK

    Hi

    We have one particular map which accepts 2 input files and creates output as SINK.

    From event server logs & map logs, we see that the map fails with "16 - Disk write error".

    We use AIX 5.2, DSTX 7.5.1 and use Event server for execution
    Audit log is ON (The folder has write privilege & we get log files for the map)
    WorkSpace is the Map directory & has write permission.

    As mentioned, all input, log & map directories have write permission. We are able to physically create/delete files in these folders with the Event server User ID.

    Does anyone have any suggestion? Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance

    If your output is SINK you must be doing something in the card to run an adapter which is failing.

    Have you tried eliminating adapter calls/cards to try and determine which one is causing the problem?

    e.g. put Workspace to memory and turn audit logs off. If you still get the error, put these back in and remove an input card or an output card.

    Most likely, as Jan says, you probably have an adapter call in a rule somewhere causing this.

    Also ...

    Ensure that trace & backup are definately off.

    Do you have enough disk space to run the map (if you have large data size)?

    Are any of the settings being overridden by another process?

    Anytime you get a problem on UNIX, you might want to run the UI script against the engine (Event Server, Command Server, etc.) send that result, any other logs and the compoundsystem or msltimestamp.txt files to Support.
