Etienne,
The server is a Windows 2003 server with SP1(Standard Edition -
english). It's used as an application server with specific software(no
webserver,no database) and there is no other monitoring tool or
antivirus installed.
I figured out the module that is the cause the problem and its the
msgs.dll. If i remove that line from the the config the memory usages
seems normal.
The size of the event log is 58Mb (5days), with quite a lot of activity
in the application log.
Regards,
Ivan

Hello,
2006/8/28, Ivan Verbeeck <user-5c6357abd073@xymon.invalid>:
Hello,
I just checked the memory use of BBwin after appr. 60hours without any
external tests and its now > 14Mb. I also checked all the .ddl
versions and there all 0.8.0 or 0.8.1. (seems normal because it was
the first release on that machine).
Now i'm gone stop the service, remove all files and reinstall the
package, maybe there was something with the installation.
I'm not sure it will help to reinstall but you can try.
Could you tell me what Windows are you using ? its language, its Service
Pack level.
What type of servers is it ? web ? database ?
Is there some antivirus or others monitoring software installed ?
What you can try if you have some times :
1) turn timer to 5s in BBWin.cfg
2) remove all load directives from BBWin.cfg
3) start the BBWin service, check the bbwin memory growth
4) add each bbwin load directive one by one and wait some times between
each add so you will be able to detect which agent is taking memory
I know it's not very elegant but it is the easiest way to determine
where is the problem.
