Hi community,

Plateforme : windows server 2016, uv 14.1.1.1002, 

Over the past few days, we’ve been experiencing random errors on uv static files. 

The same error messages appear repeatedly — expected blink 0x0 or 0x10000.

These errors can occur up to ten times a day and affect various files (e.g., VOC, XXPROCESS, XXPPP, etc.), the most strange is these files are mainly used for read.... 

To resolve them temporarily, we use fixtool -fix (at boot uv, else the files are locked). 

Does anybody have any idea what could be causing this?

We’ve already checked our antivirus, but the problem persists.

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated ;)

 

With kind regards 

Manu

Manu,

 

When this happens, are any actual errors found in the files - and if so what?

 

Otherwise - has anything changed at the time this started occurring ? - and I am assuming RFS is off - please confirm or whether otherwise. The UniVerse ‘errlog’ or Windows event logs may also have some useful information. 

In the old days I would have suggested incresing MFILES significantly and see what happens, though there should be no reason why this would have an effect for a long time now. I also can’t see any reason why having multiple files pointing at the same indexes - which can happening when using absolute index paths and copying files at the O.S level particularly - could have any relevance, as that hits the index files. 

Off-the-wall question - is there any possibility that UniVerse files are being copied or overwritten while UniVerse is up and running and the database is not suspended?

 

Regards
