Hello, I have a mysql server that VM is killing about once every two weeks. Now my sar utility shows that the memory on the box continues to grow at a small rate from start to stop. But I am not sure how accurate that is.
Now I am running slackware 9.1 with kernel 2.4.23 with mysql 3.23 build 50 with InnoDB support. I checked the my.cnf file and found the following: The box is a dual xeon 2.4Ghz with 2GB of RAM __alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0) VM: killing process mysqld-max Where do I start to find out if the problem is with mysql ? or our application ? It appears that the mysqld-max process will try and use all the memory in the box and so the kernel will kill the process. Also if I used mysqld_safe would it restart after this ? -- Michael Gale Network Administrator Utilitran Corporation -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
