Description

On SaaS databases, Snapshots are created automatically. A synchronization mechanism is called every hour to create snapshot backups of the database snapshots. On systems with large amounts of data, these synchronization jobs can overlap. As a result, jobs can be blocked and cancelled. This cancellation can occasionally lead to a coredump.

Workaround

No workaround is required. The coredumps only occur rarely and have no further negative effects.

Fix

The sync tool handles exceptions correctly and does not generate coredumps.
