group buffer warning..

we are seeing the following error in our system after a recent reboot (probably caused by Solaris patches as noted in KB: 57829)

WARNING: Group Buffer Size Should be 8192 Bytes

While the KB article says the error is just a warning, some of our old workflows are failing, I assume this is because the WF is bailing when it encounters this message?

Any ideas on how to get TS to suppress this message or get the WF's to not bail. For various reasons, we cannot upgrade to SP3 yet.

Please help

In this thread, the code change only indicates that the error message is stripped off of any error message containing "buffer".
If that's correct, how is that solving any problem.
From what I can tell the resolution in the thread above only massages the output and does not "resolve" any problems in workflow functioning.

Am I missing something?

ps: I have not faced the problem so cannot test the resolution

we tried the above and it worked and was recommended by support.. now we have another component throwing the error

the "/u03/iw-home/bin/iwextattr", I cannot modify this, so any suggestions on a workaround?

We had a support case open and were told SP3 was the only answer, or back out the solaris patches (but that caused a kernel panic....)

so, what did you end up doing? (and what did you do with the kernel panic? as we are considering that option)

thanks for the input..

Well, we have had so many other problems, that we just haven't put the solaris patches on the other environments yet.

We are contemplating sp3 on our dev box shortly, but were sort of waiting for other customers to test it out first Smiley Happy

An FYI follow-up, after some investigation we were able isolate the patch causing us the problem and were able to revert from Sun patch 108993-65 (bad) to 108993-63 (good); The patch uninstall needs to be done in a "safe" or single user mode in the OS so as to not cause a system panic (basically the sys admin needs to know what he is doing

The Sun patch 108993-63 contains the DST changes but is basically an older revision that does not include the group buffer change.

So far things seem to be ok..
