Maintenance Manager Copies Files to Root of NetWare Servers (151309)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 1.0
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 1.1
This article was previously published under Q151309 SYMPTOMS
Novell NetWare servers may stop responding, due to large amounts of root
directory file entries created by the Systems Management Server Maintenance
Manager service.
CAUSE
On NetWare servers, Maintenance Manager places the Maintman.tst file in the
root directory of the volume on which the Logon.srv directory resides.
Maintenance Manager creates and deletes this file on its polling interval.
If the NetWare server does not automatically purge deleted files, the
Maintman.tst files will consume more and more directory entries on the root
directory. If the maximum number of directory entries is reached, the
NetWare server may stop responding.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.0 and 1.1. This problem was corrected in Systems Management
Server version 1.2.
