vobrpc_server.exe(7616): Error: Error from VOB database: "\MYVOB"

Question

Error encountered while loading component in snapshot views and corresponding vobrpc error says:

vobrpc_server.exe(7600): Error: Error from VOB database: "\MYVOB".
vobrpc_server.exe(7600): Error: db_VISTA error -901 (errno == "Invalid argument")
vobrpc_server.exe(7600): Error: DBMS error in C:\CCVOB\MYVOB.vbs\db.
vobrpc_server.exe(7600): Error: DBMS error in "\atria\lib\db\db__elem.c" line 162

The specific error "db_VISTA error -901 (errno == "Invalid argument")" is no where mentioned in the IBM support docs, however other 901 error are mentioned in the below link .

Can anyone please help on this.

The main documentation for Vob access error is "Error from VOB database and Trouble opening VOB database".

To gather the most information about the issue, it is best to check the logs of the view logs (not just the vobrpc logs). Also check the logs both on the client and the server.

A 901 error suggests an error on the Vob server side regarding accessing the vob itself (either in term of resource or permission).
You can check first if the UCM component is visible through a dynamic view (instead of loading it with a snapshot view).

A daily reboot of the vob server suggests issue with the parameters of said server.
You can start tweaking first the ones of the lock manager (-u and -q).
