After a while he needed to restart MySQL (made some changes somewhere) and
it refused to do so:
050726 14:13:12 mysqld started
050726 14:13:12 InnoDB: Error: cannot allocate 7340048384 bytes of
InnoDB: memory with malloc! Total allocated memory
InnoDB: by InnoDB 78086952 bytes. Operating system errno: 12

He then rebooted the entire server and:

...it runs happily again.
Any ideas anyone on the cause and (more importantly) how to fix this
problem?
On my machine (Linux: SuSE 9.1), I have this line in
/usr/include/asm-generic/errno-base.h :
#define ENOMEM 12 /* Out of memory */
So it looks like some address space (paging area?) was not yet free when
the restart was attempted. Maybe the MySQL server had not yet fully
terminated?
HTH,
