6.6.6 Main causes of DBMS errors and actions to be taken

In the event of an error, check the client library of the DBMS used by Asset Information Manager Subset for any error. If you are using Embedded RDB, see (2) Errors specific to Embedded RDB because the error cause might be specific to Embedded RDB.

Organization of this subsection
(1) Errors common to DBMS
(2) Errors specific to Embedded RDB

(1) Errors common to DBMS

This subsection discusses the causes and actions to be taken for each type of DBMS eror.

(a) The DBMS environment is invalid or corrupted
(b) Attempt to connect to the Asset Information Manager Subset database results in an error
(c) Script execution results in an error

(2) Errors specific to Embedded RDB

For Embedded RDB, you must take into account the causes specific to Embedded RDB in addition to the causes discussed in (1) Errors common to DBMS.

This subsection discusses the causes and actions to be taken for each type of error.

(a) Creation of an Asset Information Manager Subset database stops due to an error

The disk space for database storage or the space for Embedded RDB specified during database creation might have become full.

Re-create the Asset Information Manager Subset database on a disk that has enough space for the capacity specified in Size for Management area and Operation area in the Detailed Database Settings dialog box that is displayed during database creation.

(b) The login window opens, but a message "Page cannot be displayed" is displayed, and you cannot log in

No Asset Information Manager Subset database has been created.

Make sure that you have already started the Server Setup dialog box and enter Login ID and Password in Database Information, then click the OK button.

Do not use a reserved word in the login ID or service name (you can check the list of reserved words in RESWORDS.TXT that is stored in JP1/Software-Distribution-Manager-installation-folder\jp1asset).

Now create an Asset Information Manager Subset database.

(c) Authentication for database connection fails

An error message beginning with the following character string is output to the log:

Login ID or Password in Database Information might have been changed after Asset Information Manager Subset operation was started.

Open the Server Setup dialog box and change Login ID and Password in Database Information to the values specified when the Asset Information Manager Subset database was created.

Login ID and Password in Database Information cannot be changed during operation.

(d) A database communication error has occurred or an error has occurred in the database

An error message beginning with one of the following character strings is output to the log:

The DBMS server might be running, be shut down, or have terminated. Check the following:

(e) There is a shortage of database capacity

An error message beginning with the following character string is output to the log:

There might be a shortage of pages in the database area.

Reorganize the Asset Information Manager Subset database. If the same error message is displayed again after the database has been reorganized, re-create the Asset Information Manager Subset database and change its size.

For details about how to reorganize the Asset Information Manager Subset database, see 10.3.7 Reorganizing databases in an Embedded RDB environment in the manual Setup Guide. For details about how to change the size of an Asset Information Manager Subset database, see 5.2.3(3) Changing the size of an Embedded RDB.

(f) Free space has decreased on the drive where the Asset Information Manager Subset database was created

This might have been caused by automatic extension of the Embedded RDB work file (used to store temporary information required for executing SQL statements).

The size of the work file is extended automatically when a large volume of search results is output. If a space shortage has occurred on the drive where the Asset Information Manager Subset database has been created, you can release the area extended automatically for the work file by executing jamemb_workcomp.exe.

This subsection describes the function, format, and return values of jamemb_workcomp.exe, the command for releasing the area expanded automatically for the work file in Embedded RDB. The subsection also includes notes about command execution.

jamemb_workcomp.exe is stored in the following folder:

JP1/Software-Distribution-Manager-installation-folder\jp1asset\exe

Function
This command releases area that has been extended automatically for the work file in Embedded RDB.

Format
jamemb_workcomp.exe

Return value
The command returns one of the following values:
Return value Description
0 Normal termination
11 Option format is invalid
101 or greater Terminated due to some other error

Notes about command execution
A user with Administrator permissions must execute jamemb_workcomp.exe.
