Net Statistics Workstation Incorrectly Refers to Reqbuf (108784)
This article was previously published under Q108784
SYMPTOMS
Under the category "Times Buffers Exhausted," Net Statistics Workstation
indicates that it is reporting on how many times work buffers were
exhausted on the server, but it actually is reporting on request buffers.
CAUSE
NetStatisticsGet2 API data structure (workstation) has a parameter for
stw0_reqbufneed.
The OS/2 redirector uses a server message block heap buffer composed of
(basically) numworkbuf*sizworkbuf. The redirector allocates out of this
buffer, and increments the reqbufneed statistic when the buffer gets
exhausted. It should increment the workbufneed statistic, since only the
server uses reqbufs.
RESOLUTION
Tune NumWorkBuf in the [workstation] section of LANMAN.INI.
