just get the shared memory dump configured for this timeslice error. nothing scary about it
things you have to keep in mind for shared memory dumps:
- it will write to disk what you configure, including data cache, procedure cache, errorlog. for servers with a lot of memory configured, it can take some time to write the file.
- best is to freeze the instance (default action) while you do the memory dump, server will be inaccessible for users during the dump
- set a maximum number of shared memory dumps, e.g. 1. that counter will be reset during a restart of the ASE server.
- make sure you've got enough free disk space where the dump is configured
to configure, use sp_shmdumpconfig
this proc will also give an estimate of the dumpfile size
