Description

Internal database component “objectserver” periodically removes obsolete objects from the database. During this garbage collection process, a race condition can result in an inconsistency that causes the database to restart. Although rare, this problem becomes increasingly likely as the number of transactions increases.

Workaround

There is no workaround.

Fix

The issue has been fixed to avoid database restarts.
