Is it possible to disable some tmms to reduce the overall amount?

Hi,

 

 

I need to reduce the number of active tmms on my 8900 to reproduce an issue we are seeing on a 3600 where there are only 2 tmm cores. The 8900 has 8 tmms and i need to disable/put off line 6 of them so that we can reproduce the issue we are seeing on the 3600. I've tried harcoding the following file and lines to values of "2" and rebooting or doing a bigstart restart.

 

 

/etc/bigstart/scripts/tmm

 

 

get how many tmm processes should run

 

tmm_count=$(get_tmm_count)

 

 

get the number of CPUs (virtual)

 

num_cpus=$(get_number_cpu)

 

 

But this just resulted in the tmms constantly restarting and reporting an error that shared memory could not allocated.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Aidan.

  • Hi Aidan,

     

     

    I'd work with support on this. Generally, if they suggested disabling of TMMs they should be able to help you troubleshoot any issues with the testing.
