Symptoms

As a result of a known issue when a system uses a High Speed Logging (HSL) configuration with replication across the HSL pool TMM may leak memory.

Impact

TMM will leak memory at a rate proportional to the amount of logging. Over time this may cause an outage should TMM run out of memory.

Conditions

Remote HSL setup with distribution set to replicated in the log destination configuration. More than one poolmember, and one of them becomes unavailable.

Workaround

Do not use replication in the HSL destination configuration.

Fix Information

TMM no longer leaks memory when using a replicated HSL setup.
