PDS in a loop

Description:
Last night, our CRON job which runs UTIL-X-9 failed with the following error:
sort: can't map anonymous memory: Resource temporarily unavailable
We killed the job and restarted Metalib. Now, when we link to MetaLib , the system connects, but then keeps redirecting back and forth between PDS/SSO and Metalib.
The PDS server log is full of stuff like this:

Resolution:
When the UTIL-X-9 cronjob fails and/or when vir01 is run without closing down MetaLib, the z54 session index is not properly reconstructed. Thus, when a user tried to access MetaLib, the system could not
assign a session id and got into a loop.
To resolve the problem, shut down MetaLib, run the clear_vir01 to completion (so session index is rebuilt) and then restart MetaLib in an orderly fashion.
