IBM Security Guardium Collector internal database got to 90% and stopped collecting data

Troubleshooting


Problem

If an IBM Security Guardium Collector internal database is 90% full, and the Collector stops collecting activity data. Inspection Engine, Classification and other "collection-related" services has stop. Also, Aggregation import/restore does not process any new files.

Cause

By default, Collector will stop internal services if the database exceeds the 90% full threshold. This is a safety mechanism to avoid it becoming 100% full.

Resolving The Problem

First reduce the DB % by purging data from the collector.

See the following document on What can I do if Guardium Appliance is getting full:
