Issue/Introduction

Primary SS has crashed twice...

First time I pulled up SCP and did a restore and it seemed to restart fine....

It finished activating the models, but then crashed again...

Environment

All supported DX NetOps Performance Management releases

Cause

How to collect gdb stack trace from a SpectroSERVER core dump on Linux

Resolution

We restored to a 2 day old backup that did not experience the crash.

Then we added this value to the .vnmrc (on both primary and secondary SS). After adding it restart the SS.

stack_size_modifier=4

What this will do is allow for an additional 512mb of memory to be used by the SpectroSERVER to help with searches.
