APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
A loop occurs as the process tries to remove the "pending" status for a given bitfile, but no rows were inserted into the DB, since the object is so small and this results in a RC=2 (object not found) which is not being tolerated. This should be expected for objects too small to be de-duplicated. Level 2 diagnostics: q process will show the identify duplicates process staying on the same filesize. show dedupthread will show a thread staying on the same bitfile id. A server trace with adm af pvr mms dedup dedup1 dedup2 flags will show: [bfdedup.c][10237][BfRemovePendingStatus]:Error 2 removing pending state of ID 1282053781 [pvrntp.c][5394][NtpBuildComBlockHdr]:Building NTP Block Header - block ID = 1050886 and data bytes = 262096. [bfdedup.c][10244][BfRemovePendingStatus]:Remove complete, rc: 87, 0 rows updated [bfdedup.c][10248][BfRemovePendingStatus]:Exiting, rc: 87 [bfdedup.c][8186][BfDedupVolumeThread]:Retrying object 518143736 due to rc = 87 - retries left 3.
