Re: Out of Memory

Well, I've been unsuccessful so far on creating a standalone test.

I have put some scripting in place to capture some additional information on
the server with the out of memory issues. I have a script which just
periodically dumps the output of free -m to a text file.

So, the output of free -m immediately before and after the out of memory
error looks like this:

Just before:
total used free shared buff/cache
available
Mem: 14877 2978 132 3553 11766
7943
Swap: 0 0 0

Just after:
total used free shared buff/cache
available
Mem: 14877 2946 649 3548 11280
7982
Swap: 0 0 0

If I have nearly 8 GB of memory left, why am I getting out of memory errors?

Thanks,
Greig
