Public bug reported: Occasionally a neutron gate job fails because the node runs out of memory. oom-killer is invoked and it starts killing processes to save the node. (which just causes cascading issues) The kernel logs show that oom-killer is being invoked by neutron-ns-meta.
An example of one such failure is: http://logs.openstack.org/75/116775/2/check/check-tempest-dsvm-neutron- full/ab17a70/ With the kernel log: http://logs.openstack.org/75/116775/2/check/check-tempest-dsvm-neutron- full/ab17a70/logs/syslog.txt.gz#_Aug_26_04_59_03 Using logstash this failure can be isolated to only neutron gate jobs. So there is probably something triggering neutron to occasionally make the job consume in excess of 8GB of ram. I also noted in the neutron svc log that first out of memory error came from using keystone-middleware: http://logs.openstack.org/75/116775/2/check/check-tempest-dsvm-neutron- full/ab17a70/logs/screen-q-svc.txt.gz#_2014-08-26_04_56_39_602 but that may just be a red herring. ** Affects: neutron Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: gate-failure -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
