I am having a problem with a specific user account that I can't shutdown as I would create data corruption now if I do so, but I also need to increase the resources of it as that user account can't login via ssh because it reach the limits.

I get "Disconnecting: fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable" and looking at the system running, I see that it use all the possible process available to that account.

I try to change the login.conf to allow more, but it doesn't take effect now.

Killing the process on that users, I can't do that now as I would at the same time create data corruptions, so I can't do it as these process are manipulating lots of data now.

So, I am running out of ideas as to what to try to temporary address this issue now and then later make a permanent fix to it.

Is it possible to do so as it is in use, or do I need to kill it.

The process in question will continue to run for may be two more days now and I can't really wait that much as it is create real problem now.

Any advise on this would be more then welcome.

I am still doing research on Google to see what I can do, and I am sure some how I would find it eventually, but I am a bit in a crunch if someone would have a good suggestion, I would appreciate it.

I am really starting the fell the heat on this. my problem is more of a timely fix then a proper solutions at this time

Thanks

Daniel
