Hi All, Mysql service is going down continously in my system due to lack of memory space. I checked the messages log and found the following error message. All mbuf clusters exhausted, please see tuning(7). I have no idea about mbuf cluster. Can anyone please help me to fix the issue. I hope the information below will help you. Following is the output of top. last pid: 84718; load

Andre, Are you going to have time to MFC things from -current for auto-tuning -stable before 9.2? I fear (maybe unnecessarily?) that we are about to ship yet another release that can't do basic 10gigE when sufficient memory exists. If you don't have time, then let me know and I'll see what I can do. -- Alfred Perlstein VP Software Engineering, iXsystems

Hello everyone, First of all, great job on the 4.8-R. We have been a long standing user of FreeBSD and are very happy with everything. Now my question. I am trying to stress test a new Dell PowerEdge server and find the limits of its hardware and my tuning. Here are the server stats: * 2x Xeon 2.8 with SMP compiled, hyperthreading NOT compiled in kernel * 4 GB of RAM, 8 GB of swap on Raid 1

Hi there, I have some DDOS(?) attack on my router going where my apache HTTP server is flooded with short-timed connections from some host. This results in LOTS of sockets in TIME_WAIT/LAST_ACK/CLOSING states and eventually I'm out of mbufs, which, consequently means I can't even connect to the router from LAN. The kern.ipc.nmbclusters is 2560, (I guess high enough for router with

I first saw this problem when our internetgateway refused to boot its new kernel, it was a 4.7-RELEASE. Then i loaded the old kernel and went home to check if my 4.8-STABLE does likewise. And the answer was yes! Both kernels were GENERIC + these options taken from the dummynet man pages: options DUMMYNET options NMBCLUSTERS options HZ When i boot the machine it suddently

Ive been googling quite a bit now for problems with running out of mbuf clusters. Im basically sending a 30k datachunk down 1000-4000 connections, but 1000 is more than enough to quickly fill upp 8192 mbuf clusters. I also tried setting maximum amount of mbuf clusters to 65536, but that only made the box hard-wire 86MB of 96MB RAM, making it just as unsuable as a dead machine. Of course, when the

I figured that someone reading this list might want to take a look at the proceeding, considering that the version of Snort in FreeBSD ports -is- affected. -----Forwarded Message----- > From: CERT Advisory <cert-advisory@cert.org> > To: cert-advisory@cert.org > Subject: CERT Advisory CA-2003-13 Multiple Vulnerabilities in Snort Preprocessors > Date: 17 Apr 2003 11:30:47 -0400

I finally got a 10G card that is recognized by FreeBSD (9.1-stable): ... ix0: <Intel(R) PRO/10GbE PCI-Express Network Driver, Version - 2.4.8> port 0xecc0-0xecdf mem 0xd9e80000-0xd9efffff,0xd9ff8000-0xd9ffbfff irq 40 at device 0.0 on pci4 ix0: Using MSIX interrupts with 9 vectors ix0: RX Descriptors exceed system mbuf max, using default instead! ix0: Ethernet address: 90:e2:ba:29:c0:54

Hello everyone, I am trying to tweak some of the sysctl tunables for the ix (ixgbe) driver in FreeBSD 9.2 since I am experiencing less than ideal performance and it seems like I can't find any: # sysctl -a | grep -i ixgbe device ixgbe I am running 9.2-RC4. Any input appreciated. Thanks, -- Rumen Telbizov Unix Systems Administrator <http://telbizov.com>

Hello Folks, I have used FreeBSD-4.8-RC and apache 1.3.2x. In some days,my dmesg has shown as the lines; pid 9229 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11 pid 10106 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11 pid 9842 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11 pid 35708 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11 pid 9371 (httpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11 pid 10337 (httpd), uid 80: exited on

Take the usual precautions when upgrading. Also note that I have changed some configuration defaults: the server no longer accepts protocol version 1 nor password authentication by default. If your ssh client does not support ssh protocol version 2 or keyboard-interactive authentication, the recommended measures are: 1) get a better client 2) get a better client (I mean it) 3) get a better

hello all! i've installed gcc-3.2 about a month ago and put "USE_GCC=3.2" into /etc/make.conf. now "make clean" for any of ports leads to smth like Apr 18 12:38:54 alc /kernel: swap_pager: out of swap space Apr 18 12:38:54 alc /kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed Apr 18 12:38:54 alc /kernel: pid 219 (XFree86), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space "ps ax"

Hi list, since we activated 10gbe on ixgbe cards + jumbo frames(9k) on 9.0 and now on 9.1 we recognize that after a random period of time, sometimes a week, sometimes only a day, the system doesn't send any packets out. The phenomenon is that you can't login via ssh, nfs and istgt is not operative. Yet you can login on the console and execute commands. A clean shutdown isn't possible

Hi. We just opened a gaming center and have chosen to run a FreeBsd box for our firewall. IPFW is configured at it's very basic running natd through rl0 and allowing any to any connections from the lan to the outer world. Natd controls access to the lan. We have a 6.0 mb/s ADSL net connection for all the gaming clients to use, however if a gamer starts downloading a file, that file

Hi all, First of all, I have spent a lot of time reading up on it. Anyway, I live in a shared accomodation with 2 roommates and a landlord and we share a cable internet connection. It is 2Mbit/400Kbit connection. Sometimes when one of us is downloading a song through Kazaa or a new Linux or FreeBSD iso, the bandwidth gets hogged and other users can't get through. I was trying to configure

Hello List, I know 4.9 is ancient history, but unfortunately we have several thousand sites installed. We are in the process of moving to 6.1 when it is released. Right now I have an immediate problem where we are going to install two system at a HQ site. Each of the 2 systems will have two gre/vpn/ospf tunnels to a 100 remote sites in the field. The broadband will be a T3 with failover to

Hi, I got this error when i tried to type for some of those.

What else can i do to get optimum protection. Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Per Engelbrecht" <per@xterm.dk> To:
