For anyone affected: - Do you have ipmitool, libfreeipmi17, freeipmi-common installed? - Are you running check_mk agent or another tool polling ipmitool data? - Can you try uninstalling ipmitool libfreeipmi17 freeipmi-common to see if the problem goes away? Plus, if you happen to have check_mk and can't see details in your memory allocation graphs, you can add an extra "slab only" graph by editing: /opt/omd/versions/1.5.0p22.cre/share/check_mk/pnp-templates/check_mk-mem.linux.php and adding: $opt[] = $defopt . "--title \"Slab only\""; $def[] = "" . mem_area("slab", "af91eb", "Slab (Various smaller caches)", FALSE) ; starting at line 95.
