Alcatel Unleashed

Hello all,

It is related to one of my site on Release 9.0

I am getting a major incident-2071 " swap partition 31% full". I am unable to under the message clearly. Also tried to understand the same through incinfo command, but failed to understand.

Assistance is solicited.

Regards.

Like windows also linux uses a swap partition. In this case it means that the the swap partition is already for 30% full. For this problem a reset of the oxe will help.

Do you have high traffic or a lot of applications ?
Used command "free" or "cat /proc/swaps" check your swap partition in OXE.If you often error :
1). I think that may be the OXE R9.0's BUG.You can try to upgrade to the new patch;
2). Try to resize swap partition
a. use "root" login to OXE;
b. command "dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/swapfree bs=32k count=8192" (**swap size=bs*count e.g swap=32K*8192=262144 ≈256MB）;
c. command "mkswap /tmp/swapfree" （**format swapfree）
d. command "swapon /tmp/swapfree" （**start swapfree）
e. command "swapon –s （**show swap status）
f. command "vi /etc/fstab" add "/tmp/swapfree swap swap defaults 0 0";
like this :
/dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/tmp/swapfree swap swap defaults 0 0
command "reboot" (**restart your OXE.)
g. command "cat /proc/swaps" check your new swap partition.
like this:
xa000000> cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/hda11 partition 530104 2176 -1
/tmp/swapfree file 327672 0 -2
xa000000>free
Swap : 857776 (**Old is 530104)

Dear Yong_zhao,

There is very little traffic ( negligible) and there is no application. It happened after release upgrade from R7.1 to R9.0.
I would put an update, once I login to the system. I am not on site and the only way is to have remote login.

Anyway, thanks for the suggessions.

Restart sipmotor. Should solve the issue.
dhs3_init -R SIPMOTOR
(Check there are no running SIP communications or they will get lost)

You can see details with command top -b -n1 in SIZE column if I remember it correctly

I can confirm that the suggest from Eliott works. I had a site with a 2071 incident. After restarting the sipmotor the swap partition was free again.

Issue also resolved after restart of sipmotor. And I had to login root account to kill the sipmotor process due to R9.1 OXE. No incidents in over 2.5 hours.

better upgrade to the latest patch. incident will come back because of a bug. it starts to inform you if 30% of swap usage is reached.

regards...
