I have 2 AS5300 that have been rebooting pretty consistently. I upgraded both of them and I am still having the issue. I am seeing the following error:
00:20:31: %SYS-2-MALLOCFAIL: Memory allocation of 6000 bytes failed from 0x6032D3BC, alignment 0 Pool: Processor Free: 4353544 Cause: Memory fragmentation Alternate Pool: None Free: 0 Cause: No Alternate pool and it eventually crashes. I am not ruling out a DDoS. One thing that caught my attention is the RM Process which is consuming a lot of memory in a short period of time. Does anyone know what this does? A few minutes after a reboot of the chassi it increases systematically in size. Any help would be appreciated. as5300-2#sh processes memory Total: 46069472, Used: 20971964, Free: 25097508 PID TTY Allocated Freed Holding Getbufs Retbufs Process 0 0 79648 1848 19373952 0 0 *Init* 0 0 632 69616 632 0 0 *Sched* 0 0 35569168 7169060 260 7959388 0 *Dead* 1 0 280 280 3808 0 0 Load Meter 2 0 5052 0 14412 3360 0 Mica board Downl 3 0 0 0 6808 0 0 Check heaps 4 0 96 0 6904 0 0 Chunk Manager 5 0 96 0 6904 0 0 Pool Manager 6 0 280 280 6808 0 0 Timers 7 0 280 280 6808 0 0 Serial Backgroun 8 0 96 0 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 9 0 96 0 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 10 0 96 0 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 11 0 96 0 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 12 0 376 280 6904 0 0 CAS Process 13 0 1692 1764 7408 0 0 ARP Input 14 0 0 0 6808 0 0 HC Counter Timer 15 0 5020 280 6916 0 0 DDR Timers 16 0 280 280 12808 0 0 Dialer event 17 0 17320 3840 20288 0 0 Entity MIB API 18 0 96 0 6904 0 0 SERIAL A'detect as5300-2#sh processes memory Total: 46069472, Used: 22577836, Free: 23491636 PID TTY Allocated Freed Holding Getbufs Retbufs Process 0 0 79648 1848 19371884 0 0 *Init* 0 0 1184 1829208 1184 0 0 *Sched* 0 0 38520116 8699352 375260 8974108 0 *Dead* 1 0 280 280 3808 0 0 Load Meter 2 0 4965852 4455080 415476 0 0 Exec 3 0 0 0 6808 0 0 Check heaps 4 0 96 0 6904 0 0 Chunk Manager 5 0 96 0 6904 0 0 Pool Manager 6 0 280 280 6808 0 0 Timers 7 0 7240 2072 6808 0 0 Serial Backgroun 8 0 297444 7804 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 9 0 3452160 2269824 7352 0 0 RM PROCESS 10 0 862840 2018432 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 11 0 19936 335760 6904 0 0 RM PROCESS 12 0 376 280 6904 0 0 CAS Process 13 0 1916 8492 7632 0 0 ARP Input 14 0 0 0 6808 0 0 HC Counter Timer 15 0 5128 388 6916 0 0 DDR Timers 16 0 280 280 12808 0 0 Dialer event 17 0 17320 3840 20288 0 0 Entity MIB API 18 0 96 0 6904 0 0 SERIAL A'detect [snip] Thanks, Mario Puras SoluNet Technical Support Mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Direct: (321) 309-1410 888.449.5766 (USA) / 888.SOLUNET (Canada) **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=74244&t=74198 -------------------------------------------------- **Please support GroupStudy by purchasing from the GroupStudy Store: http://shop.groupstudy.com FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html
