Probably a filled up swap. I would look into /tmp and delete stuff there or better don’t put stuff on tmpfs - use /var/tmp for your stuff.
If you fill up /tmp you fill up your swap and you can’t allocate any memory if you don’t have enough free swap space. So no swap -> no malloc() -> no new processes… easily solved for a zone because you can influence the zones filesystem from the global zone - if you did fill your global zone it’s probably a reboot that will get you out of there -- Daniel On 14 February 2015 at 19:31:32, Dewey Hylton via smartos-discuss ([email protected]) wrote: i haven't looked into the code, but i'm not sure why disk space would be needed to fork a process - seems more memory or ulimit-related. ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Blake Irvin via smartos-discuss" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected], [email protected] > Sent: Saturday, February 14, 2015 9:18:01 AM > Subject: Re: [smartos-discuss] No Space On Server > > Do you have any sort of automatic snapshotting going on?
