BUG #: 356784 (SHILOH_BUGS)
SYMPTOMS
On systems that have a large number of user tables (typically 100000 or more) that are running with Address Windowing Extensions (AWE) turned on, SQL Server may log the following error message in the SQL Server error log:
The 17803 error messages may have state numbers other than 14, but the BPool::Map error should always show up first.
There may be additional information in the SQL Server error log similar to:
2002-04-09 15:09:18.82 spid77 Query Memory Manager: Grants=2 Waiting=0 Maximum=2229 Available=762 2002-04-09 15:09:19.04 spid68 Buffer Distribution: Stolen=203317 Free=333 Procedures=161 Inram=0 Dirty=16283 Kept=0 I/O=0, Latched=479, Other=450547 2002-04-09 15:09:19.04 spid68 Buffer Counts: Commited=671120 Target=671120 Hashed=467309 InternalReservation=667 ExternalReservation=1299 Min Free=512 2002-04-09 15:09:19.04 spid68 Procedure Cache: TotalProcs=36 TotalPages=161 InUsePages=79 2002-04-09 15:09:19.04 spid68 Dynamic Memory Manager: Stolen=203310 OS Reserved=1664 OS Committed=1635 OS In Use=1599 Query Plan=204 Optimizer=201546 General=2887 Utilities=49 Connection=223 2002-04-09 15:09:19.04 spid68 Global Memory Objects: Resource=1984 Locks=289 SQLCache=101 Replication=2 LockBytes=2 ServerGlobal=43 Xact=37
NOTE: In this SQL Server error log text, the word "Commited" is a misspelling for the word "Committed."
In the failure case, the number reported as "Latched" is typically several thousand.
CAUSE
The lazywriter process has an incorrect calculation for determining whether it needs to run and free up infrequently used buffers so that they are available for mapping in AWE buffers.
