Multiple MaxBD DR Data files

[Former Member]

We are using MaxDB for Live Cache. We are using Version 7.9.08.08 and have logshipping to the DR Server.

Currently we have 7 data files:

DATA0001 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata1

DATA0002 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata2

DATA0003 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata3

DATA0004 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata4

DATA0005 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata5

DATA0006 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata6

DATA0007 6,291,456 KB FILE /sapdb/L1P/sapdata1

The filesystems have been sized at 35GB each.

Today we fpounf that the filesystem /sapdb/L1P/sapdata1 has become full and when we view the filesystem we see the following:

root@<hostname>:/sapdb/L1P/sapdata1# ls -lrt

total 64678928

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     system          256 15 Jul 14:58 lost+found

-rw-rw----    1 sdb      sdba      903356416 08 Dec 12:36 DISKD0007.12

Can anyone tell me why we have 4 copied of DISKD0007?

Hello David,

Please update the output of dbm command - 'param_getvolsall' from the PROD and DR server.

Hello David,

any news? What about the 'param_getvolsall' command?
Does not seem to me that MaxDB would write this. Its probably too late now, but have you checked the bash history for any 'cp' issued on OS olevel?

Hello Thorsten,

I ended up not looking at it we restored the Production LiveCache Database and re-setup the logs. We are monitoring it at the moment.
