Yes there is a memory leak in the current Version of VDR 2.0. After some days the VDR crash’s with the Message “Out of Memory”.

Get PID of datarecovery process
<br /> ps -ef | grep datarecovery<br />

Check with pmap to display information about the address space of a process
<br /> pmap -x PID<br />

Search for “anon” messages. Anon messages are blocked Memory spaces.

Current workaround is to schedule an maintenace of the destinations and then restart the VDR Appliance on a daily base. It should be possible to use scheduled tasks for the automated restart.
