I have two NetWorker clients running Apple Mac OS X 10.8.0 (as reported by NetWorker) with NetWorker client versions 7.6.1.2 and 7.6.3.7, both encountering "readdir error: Cannot allocate memory". In my searches, the only other references to this kind of error are related to tape media, which don't seem relative. Any thoughts or suggestions on what this could be about?

Server running NetWorker v 7.6.3.2 running on Solaris 10.

For example, here's what I get in the save group report for one of the systems.

<ERROR> : readdir error: Cannot allocate memory
=====

I've looked through daemon.raw (rendered) and nothing jumps out at me as to an indicator to the problem.
Any input and/or insight is appreciated.

Start the Activity Monitor on those Macs and observe their memory usage while the backup runs and monitor their console logs.

You might find the culprit that way.
