The allocated temp space will be released after the transaction finishes or terminates. - If the temp tablespace increase results in the container filesystem to filling, the Spectrum Protect server instance will crash due to the out of space condition. Platform Version affected: IBM spectrum protect Server v71 , V81 on all supported platforms .
Local fix
Local Fix: -Use reclaim=No option with "protect stgpool type=local " to prevent the issue or Monitor the db container usage during protect to ensure it has sufficient free space to allow the local protect and reclaim to finish.
