Niyati Dave — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 11:29
Hi
I am getting below error messages in my /var/log/messages
Swap gets out. and then processes are killed one by one.. sh,httpd2-
prefork,osiris.cgi repeating the same logs.. as below
Please somebody help why this is happening, what could be the cause of
the problem? what is oom-killer and why it gets invoked?

help to understand kernel logs: sshd invoked oom-killer:
Alok Thaker — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 12:30Hi,
The problem with Linux is that by default it overcommits memory –
basically when you do a malloc on linux it doesn’t reserve ane swap
areay (memory + swap disk) and alway returns as successful. Then if you
have couple of programs and all of them actually do want to use the
memory the problem starts as system is running out of memory but there
is basically no interface to tell it to applications as it already told
all of them that there is enough of it… so it starts killing application
in order to avoid complete lock so there oom-killer is invoked when linux overcommits the memory for the processes whereas in case of solaris that's not the case.
To prevent it you can do echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
Thanks & Regards,
Alok

help to understand kernel logs: sshd invoked oom-killer:
Niyati Dave — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 12:30Hi
thanks for your response
just a few queries.. does this occur because process start utilising high memory or the number of processes running increase on the server?
I could see the above logs continuously: like at one instance it says :
kernel: httpd2-prefork invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1201d2, order=0, oomkilladj=0
....
then after a few seconds
kernel: osiris.cgi invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1201d2, order=0, oomkilladj=0
....
Kernel: cron invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1201d2, order=0, oomkilladj=0
....
How can i interprete which process is actully causing the memory issue and triggering oom-killer? cron, httpd2-prefork, sshd.. ?
Thanks again
Thanks & Regards,
Alok

Niyati Dave — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 13:30Thanks again
bt this is not rhel , I have the server suselinux version 11
IN the logs the processes which invoked oom-killer are sshd, then top, httpd2-prefork and then osiris.cgi.
After a few minutes the server was normal so that is why I am not able to make out what actully may have caused the problem.

Nirmal Pathak — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 16:30From the oom-kill messages I can see that the system has exhausted Swap Memory
--
Jul 28 01:42:10 APP0001 kernel: Free swap = 0kB
--
I would suggest to increase Swap Space on the system prior to setting any memory related tunable on the system.
It is difficult from logs to find exact process which triggered the oom-kill.
Out of Memory occurs when the system memory is exhausted on the system and kernel tries to recover the memory by killing various process on the system which is consuming more memory.
You have to monitor your system continuously to find the cause!
This does not seem to be httpd issue to me. Issue occurred as system had exhausted memory including the swap memory.
M:-9978926593
It could be both! :)
As mentioned above when system is under heavy memory load, the kernel starts killing processes which are consuming high memory on the system.
Have FuN!

thanks for the response and explaination:
1 query I have the physical memory : 4102 M

Is it recommended to increase the swap more?

nehal dattani — Thu, 02/02/2012 - 20:30Hi,
This is what you have asked for.
"Is there any way so that I can prevent such entries from writing to access.log.
"
Therefore we are focused on preventing unwanted entries in log. Of-cousre you can parse it periodically with certain conditions but these entries are still there in log file.
So its your choice, how to deal with log files. For a busy server, avoiding unwanted I/O is a good step to increase performance.
With best regards,
Nehal Dattani

There is a little hack.
You can specify "none" for all those acl's which you do not want to log.
Example:
access_log none [acl acl ...]
Please refer to description of "TAG: access_log" in squid.conf file for more details.

ElectroMech — Mon, 08/01/2011 - 09:30Hi,
Can you give us more idea what services are provided by server ?
Mostly 4 G Memory is good, still depends on what application you served. Still we can change some parameters within application ( for memory utilization) so OOM-KILLER should not occurs.
Thanks and Regards.

help to understand kernel logs: sshd invoked oom-killer:
Niyati Dave — Mon, 08/01/2011 - 11:30Hello all
I have read the above discussion, so I would like to clarify a few things.. the kernel is a latest one as provided by the suselinux enterprise server and version 11 - so the latest one. The server is a xen guest and applications running on the server is just apache, postfix. But yes it has a good usage of apache application and there are few cron scripts related to emailing, cgi. And as per the logs too after giving out of memory error related to swap then oom-killer started killing sh, httpd-prefork, top, the script.
Thanks again

I am continuously facing the same logs and problem again. I want to try out increasing the swap. What I know is creating a swap file or a new swap partition. Is there any way to increase the present swap which is already of 2G.

Subject: [VGLUG] Lan-port configuration problem:
To: vglug@googlegroups.com
Hello,
I have IBM x3450 rack server with two identical racks with 3 ethernet interfaces interfaces on each. I just tried to configure them on 1000baseT-FD mode using mii-tools and ethtool. It worked on all except one that refuses to come up on 1000baseT mode. It, then, goes in 100baseT mode and denies to set up on 1000Mbps mode. Any help appreciated.

Always check top and free -m.
Check it should not utilize swap Memory, if used should temporary.
Check also uptime for load average should not be greater than total logical cpu.
If you want change for performance should change following value without increasing usage of memory.
# worker MPM
# StartServers: initial number of server processes to start
# MaxClients: maximum number of simultaneous client connections
# MinSpareThreads: minimum number of worker threads which are kept spare
# MaxSpareThreads: maximum number of worker threads which are kept spare
# ThreadsPerChild: constant number of worker threads in each server process
# MaxRequestsPerChild: maximum number of requests a server process serves
<IfModule worker.c>
StartServers 2
MaxClients 150
MinSpareThreads 25
MaxSpareThreads 75
ThreadsPerChild 25
MaxRequestsPerChild 0
</IfModule>
Let us know the impact and check the log.
Can you provide again the output of above ?
Remember to restart the apache.

One more observation
There are some problem in osiris.cgi almost consuming all memory and processor through apache.
What is the process ? please check or let us have some information.

If your existing swap filesystem is on LVM then you can extend the
Logical Volume.
If not, then you need to create a file or partition on the system and
create new swap space.

Nirmal Pathak — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 18:30Yes, as Alok mentioned in old days when Physical Memory was less & costly we used to put swap as double of Physical memory.
Now days we have huge physical memory on servers like 64GB, 128GB, etc there we do not require swap double of Physical Memory. Linux kernel hardly uses Swap space more than 20 GB, no matter how large Swap Space you keep on the servers.
It could be both! :)
As mentioned above when system is under heavy memory load, the kernel starts killing processes which are consuming high memory on the system.
Have FuN!

Alok Thaker — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 19:30Yes dear nirmal i.e very true..& she is using suselinux what I found is that there is a leakage somewhere, niyati are you doing some kind of scanning on webserver like PCI or Audit scan...that can cause memory to be consumed also....
Have FuN!

Alok Thaker — Fri, 07/29/2011 - 18:30Hi,
It is always recommended to have swap memory as twice of physical memory as per linux fundatmentals , in your case it looks it has less swap memory as compared to physical memory.
Thanks & Regards,
Alok

No. It was due to expensive RAM on the old architectures in the early
days. Linux memory management is quite proficient since 2.6, and this
false notion doesn't apply today. You can run GNU/Linux even without
any swap.

Alok Thaker — Sat, 07/30/2011 - 00:30Hi,
Yes linux can be installed with or without swap but definiitely it impacts heavy applications like running big servers with big deployments of jboss,tomcat,apache,mod_jk,clustering things etc..definitely swap is helpful and here kernel version wasn't discussed but the problem of application leakage was discussed by niyati.
Thanks & Regards,
Alok

Linux is the kernel. You only gave (incorrect) information regarding
the Linux kernel which I quoted and replied. Now, you are saying
kernel version was not discussed. Read the replies, slowly, carefully
before replying.
