SYMPTOMS
When an e-mail notification is sent, Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2000 may leak memory and 5 or more handles.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
MOM 2000 has the ability to send e-mail notifications when an event occurs, but these notifications can cause 5 or more handles and some memory to leak. MOM processes this problem internally by using the &quot;OnePoint service handle count > 10,000 (handle leak) - Bounce Service&quot; Performance processing rule. This rule is located in the &quot;Agents, Consolidators, or Data Access Servers&quot; Processing Rule group. This rule stops and then restarts the OnePoint service on the server.

Additionally, an alert to notify you that this activity has occurred is generated by the &quot;OnePoint service handle count > 10,000 (handle leak) - Alert&quot; Performance Processing rule that is contained in the &quot;Agents, Consolidators, or Data Access Servers&quot; Processing Rule group.
