Description

Description:
In what scenario will the, "com.tibco.as.space.ASException: INVALID_OBJECT (metaspace_invalid)" exception be throw?
Symptoms:
com.tibco.as.space.ASException: INVALID_OBJECT (metaspace_invalid) exception is thrown as-agent/ as-admin log file / console.

Cause:
The com.tibco.as.space.ASException: INVALID_OBJECT error occur when an underlying metaspace needs to migrate to a different metaspace. This usually happens when there is a network failure/memory related issue. Network related issues causes a condition where there could be multiple clusters running independently. Once the network is restored, they will discover each other and the cluster with a smaller member will migrate to a bigger cluster. This migration causes space references to become invalid, throwing INVALID_OBJECT exceptions. BW does not expose the space reference to the user, so it is not possible to fix this without restarting the BW engine.

Resolution

 Restart the BW engine process.
