ResourceManager: Optimizing Memory Usage. Please wait...

Good afternoon.

I am running a series of workbenched (FME 2014) and these workbenches typically take 20 minutes to run. They have been running fine until a recent oracle patch and it is now causing my workbenches to hang continually until I cancel them through the FME Server UI.

The error is: ResourceManager: Optimizing Memory Usage. Please wait...

I would appreciate any ideas, although I have tried the following:

Purge logs

Restarted FME server

Check all DB accounts being used

Do you get the same problem if you simply run the workspaces through Workbench (i.e. in Desktop not Server). That's always a good step to try, to confirm whether it's a general issue or specific to Server. I must say I can't see why an Oracle patch would cause FME to suddenly go into memory overdrive - but if it did I would expect it to be a general issue and not just Server.

If anything changed to the TEMP directory you could have a look at this article:

Changes in TEMP directories or having less space in the TEMP directory can also cause memory resource issues.

As Mark says, it is very odd that an Oracle patch would affect FME. Unless your FME Engine is also running on your Oracle Server and FME & Oracle are now competing for resources. As Mark suggests, test your workspace on FME Desktop - are you still getting resource issues? Find out what else may have changed on your system outside of the Oracle patch
