When QoreStor is installed on Linux versions 7.3 - 7.7, configuring an archive tier may result in a memory leak. This is due to an issue with the curl package installed on those versions of Linux.
Workaround
Either upgrade the Linux version on the QoreStor server to 7.8, or update the curl package to curl 7.29.0-57.el7. DR Series systems migrated to QoreStor which are on Oracle Linux 7.3 should update the curl package to 7.29.0-57.el7 |
QS-9056 |
On DR Series Systems migrated to QoreStor, the maximum inode limit for an object container is set to 1 million. In some cases, this may result in a "maximum allowable File(s) and Directories limit" error.
Workaround:
To increase that, the environmental variable MDS_OT_INODES_ALLOWED in /etc/oca/customer.env has to be set to a higher value. Please contact Quest Support for assistance making this change. |
QS-9021 |
During object direct installation, if the message "Failed to validate object direct connection string! "may be received if the certificate has been changed or is expired on the QoreStor server.

When writing to an NFS container on a system with 24GB or less of memory, some customers may receive "out of memory" errors.
Workaround:
On the QoreStor system, run the command sysctl -a | grep tcp_mem.
This will return your tcp memory consumption, like the example value below. The return indicates your minimum, average, and maximum values.
net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 285198 380264 570396
Using the command below, set the tcp_mem maximum value to the average value (380264, in the example above). Note that your values will be different. The value in the center is the average.
sysctl -w "net.ipv4.tcp_mem=285198 380264 380264" |
QS-10042 |
When attempting to delete a bucket containing a large amount of data, QoreStor will appear to freeze. This is due to an AWS S3 limitation that requires the objects within a bucket to be deleted before the bucket can be deleted. During the bucket delete operation, the objects are enumerated and deleted one at a time.
Workaround:
Before deleting the bucket, delete the objects within the bucket using the AWS S3 console. |
