				Dear All,
 
 
   In the production, Workflow runtime database filesystem is getting increased drastically and the filesystem is getting up filled..
 
   For past 20 days the database usage is increased to 4GB which is 10% of the file system.
 
 
 
  As i have analysed and  found file SQL00008.DAT size is 26GB in the directory  /var/fmc/rt_db/db2inst1/FMCDB/ACTWI/.
 
 
 Find the files and their size respectively which are growing...
 
 
/var/fmc/rt_db/db2inst1/FMCDB/ACTWI>>ls -ltr
 
total 66976008
 
-rw-------   1 db2inst1 db2iadm1     512 Dec 10 2002  SQLTAG.NAM
 
-rw-------   1 db2inst1 db2iadm1    4096 Feb 28 07:02 SQL00005.DAT

/var/fmc/rt_db/db2inst1/FMCDB/ACTWI>>         
 
 
Note: 
 
1. I have checked and Confirmed the AUDIT_TRAIL is OFF.
 
2. The number of records in the WORK_ITEM table is 2555 only.
 
3. I have tried to run the command db2 reorgchk  for getting the report. After   One hour the report was generated and found some of the tables requires reorg.
 
Does reorg will help in solving the problem?
 
 
Please help me on this issue and it is very critical.   
 
 
 
Thanks and Regards,

				Hi,
 
 
did you ensure that the cleanup server is running on a regulary base? Check the system and the error log.
 
You may also check that you retention intervalls for various objects
 
like workitems or log entries has reasonable values. |

Hi,
 
 
 The cleanup server is running for every one hour.
 
 There is no error found in db2 log, workflow logs and other error logs.
 
 As a whole the application has only 2500 workitems...
 
 
Thanks and Regards,

				Connect to your runtime database via DB2 and run the following:
 
 
select count(*) from fmc.process_inst where state=128
 
 
Note the number of records it shows and increase your cleanup server schedule if needed.  The records returned indicates how many processes still need to be cleared out by the cleanup server.  I personally am running it for 6 hours a day and find that may be too little. |

There is no records for the above query. And i have scheduled the cleanup server for every 30 minutes. _________________ Thanks and Regards,

				Hi,
 
 
the mentioned tablespace contains three tables, which are all related to activity work items. Since the ACTIVITY_WORK_ITEM table contains a similar number of records as the WORK_ITEM table a reorg on the three tables: ACTIVITY_WORK_ITEM, LOC_W_I_STUBS_SEG, REM_W_I_STUBS_SEG should help.
 
 
Beside that check your workflow model whether you specified KEEP_WORKITEMS FOREVER
 
in one of your active processes. |

yes, if u have deleted lots of data using fmcsclad or cleanup server etc.
 
it will reclaim the storage used by those deleted. _________________ shaker |
