Hi list,

I am seeing these error messages.

/kernel: RT_PFE: RT msg op 2 (PREFIX DELETE) failed, err 1 (Unknown)
scb RT: Failed prefix delete IPv4 - x.x.x.x
scb RT: Failed prefix delete IPv4:0 - x.x.x.x/24 (jt delete failed)/24 (No 
memory)

Besides failed prefix deletes, I am also seeing them for prefix adds.

I thought this error message was rather clear cut to what the problem
could be. As in the scb was running out of memory. But that does not
seem to be the case based on the output below.

This is an old M40 running an older JunOS release. A very old release.
5.7R2.4. (I expect a few chuckles here).

So I assume this is where I am out of memory? This box has been
up for a long time and my question is would a reboot allow it to
continue to function for many years to come or I being out of
memory now will simply happen again right away? This M40 has
served us well over the years.

I have a M10 I have been meaning to use to replace this which
is a nicer box hardware wise and I am trying to determine if this
box is no longer useful on our network.

Thank you for any assistance or advice.
