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.
