OpenSUSE Hardware :: Memory Swapping Causes System Failure?
Jan 11, 2010We have a four socket amd machine, running barcelona processors, with 64gb ram.The system runs for extended periods just fine when the system is running up to or below the 64gb memory limit. A typical load on the machine has short periods where the machine uses heavy amounts of swap space (30+ Gb). We have a swap partition of around 96Gb. When we push the machine into heavy swapping, the machine will fail within 24hrs. Has anyone experienced this problem and is there a solution other than buying more physical memory? Or am I wrong and maybe the physical memory is the issue? I thought maybe it was the memory itself, and after stripping the memory down, I get the same problem...failure upon heavy swapping

Jan 27, 2010openSUSE 11.2 installed on machine with 5GB memory but System Information in KDE desktop shows only 3GB total memory. Just added a further 4GB but no change shown in System Information.
Is there something I must do to have sysinfo report true value and does this mean that memory not shown is not being used?

OpenSUSE :: Created A Tab To Look That The Physical Memory In The System? Monitor Program?
May 11, 2010I have a system with 1 GB RAM. I'm running KDE 4. I created a tab to look that the Physical Memory in the System Monitor program, which I assume appears to look at the same stats that "top" looks at. In that Physical Memory tab I have 3 tables: Used Memory, Free Memory, and Application Memory.The Used Memory table shows that the system is using .94 of .98 GiBytes. The Free Memory table shows that the system has .5 GiBytes of RAM free.
However the Application Memory shows that only 339 M-Bytes of RAM is being used.Note that "top" shows the same info.So where is the other .6 GiBytes of RAM that the Used Memory table shows as being used?If I look at the process table which is supposed to encompass all of the processes running, including the ones for the OS, then it appears to add up to the 339 M-Bytes being used in the Application Memory table. Is the rest of the memory being held in reserve by the OS to be used as needed? If so, then why when another application is opened the Free Memory goes down instead of staying constant?I also noticed this memory "black hole" when I was running 11.0 on a system with 4 GB of RAM. The OS appeared to "take up" a large chunk of memory that was NOT being used by any applications and making it "disappear" - meaning that the applications were using about 1.3 GiBytes of RAM and Free Memory was showing only .7 GiBytes instead of the over 2 GB of RAM that should be free.
General :: How To Redirect A Terminal/tty Output To Other Terminal/tty
Dec 14, 2010hello
I tried to find a good subject but it was the best of mine, anyway I'll explain it here.
some time I do some thing like installing a new application in Linux terminal of my office PC but it take a long time and I have to go home during its installation or configuration process that it is not good to cancel it.My current solution is abandoning the process until next day. I wanted to know is there any way to redirect an input and out put of a terminal to another one, if it works I can continue my abandoned process by ssh to my Linux office PC and redirect that terminal to my new remote sshed terminal from my home.
Thank a lot for any help.
OpenSUSE Multimedia :: No Sound On HDMI Output - No Beeps - No System Sounds ?
Jun 25, 2011I am attempting to set up a machine to use as a movie/video viewer. When I connect this machine using an HDMI cable to an HDMI TV, I get video, but no audio. No beeps, no system sounds, no noise of any kind.
I've run the following mixers and set all volume controls to maximum:Gmixer, Kmix, AlsaMixer and pavucontrol.
When playing a video, pavucontrol meter shows signal from the application and shows output signal to the HDMI device, but where that output is going to is beyond me.
Using the Sound setup of Yast, I attempt to play a test sound on the HDMI, nothing.
Built in Audio adapter works fine. I have disabled it in pavucontrol in attempts to get the sound directed to the HDMI output, but, silence is all I get. I've also tried enabling and disabling simultaneous output with no difference in results.
I've tried a few suggestions from other posts with the same issue (creating /etc/asoundrc.conf, modifying /etc/pulse/default.pa), but no joy.
If I boot up that other operating system (starts with a W), all sounds (system & video) show up on the HDMI input with no adjustments needed.
Why must this be so difficult?
The technical details:
Suse 11.4
EVGA GeForce 8400GS Video card (HDMI)
All commands below were issued while HDMI cable connected, and video playing (using VLC).
Output of alsa-info.sh: [url]

View 9 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Interpreting Output Of Memory Tools In RHEL 5.3?
Mar 15, 2010I have been doing a lot of research on the web to piece together the components I need to understand what is probably a very simple thing. I've read up on buffers/cache vs. physical memory and using free -m and top and understanding that output, and reviewed Red Hat's article on virtual memory. I am hoping to get some assistance in putting it all together to understand what's happening in my situation because so far I have a lot of dangling factoids and no glue. I have also referenced the thread http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...memory-309767/ but I didn't find my answer there.
My company is running a cluster of physical web servers (they are clones so running the same OS, with same RAM and applications installed). I'll be referring to a single system although the question applies to all because they're all showing similar output. The Multi Router Traffic Grapher is showing a steady swap usage for 3-4 months now. The average usage for today is 81%. There is, as far as I know, no performance hit because of it, but a developer noticed this and wanted to know what was going on, and I'd using this opp to learn. The system is Linux version 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5, running JBOSS, postgres, Apache, and Java. Here is the output from the memory commands I have used to try and understand what's going on.
Code:
top - 21:19:27 up 159 days, 7:43, 1 user, load average: 0.52, 0.61, 0.64
Tasks: 144 total, 1 running, 143 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.2%us, 8.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 91.9%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st
[code]....
So my interpretation of this output tells me that my system has 4GB of RAM installed, 23MB of free "physical" RAM, and 1.35GB of RAM in cache (according to the second line of free -m, which represents free physical memory and useable mapped memory if I understand correctly). I have a 2GB swap partition, 1.5GB of which is currently being used, and according to the MRTG is the average that has been in use since January. So the swap size isn't decreasing. Java (JBOSS) is using the most physical RAM at 1.6GB.
My question is: if I have 1.35GB of RAM cached, why is my system using all of that swap space and not using any of the cached RAM? I thought I understood that Linux is supposed to either re-use unmodified pages in cache or send older pages to disk when more RAM was needed. It seems like my system is always sending pages to disk, which I guess would normally mean I just need more RAM but, to have close to the same swap size consistently seems like there must be more to it.
OpenSUSE Install :: Virtual Memory / Resident Memory Of Server?
Feb 3, 2010we found that if we use 'top' to show the memory usage of a server (SuSe Linux 10), we can get virtual memory usage as well as 'Resident memory' usage. For virtual mem or a particular process, it is around 1.1GB, which is large but for resident memory, it only consumes 300MB. Are there anyone who knows what the differences are? I would also like to know whether the difference (1.1GB - 300MB) = 800MB are actually available for use by other applications in the system.

Ubuntu :: Capturing ALL Output From Terminal To File?
Apr 17, 2010I would like to capture all output spewed to a terminal session including processes that are terminated that were invoked from a script running in a terminal window. this is beyond capturing just stderr and stdout . for example
{
./script
} 2> stderr.cap 1>stdout.cap
if script is terminated (including because of memory violations) I get spewed output to the terminal I would like to capture that spewing to a file automatically or to a bit bucket /dev/null Is there another filehandle which can be redirected to do this? If so how or is there another way???

Mar 15, 2011I sometimes stick my neck out and provide somewhat detailed, and often risky, "Mr-fix-it" remedies for boot problems. Now, I know it's possible to amend each command with "whatever_command > whatever.txt" in which case it'll place the command output in a file in /home.
But if you're directing someone to run a lot of commands as I did here is it possible to save the output of all commands to a .txt file without amending each command?
Or is it already saved somewhere that I'm not yet aware of? I wouldn't be surprised if the latter were true, I just haven't yet found it

Red Hat :: Directing Cron Output To Terminal Screen?
Sep 7, 2010I am trying to display a text using crontab. My settings :
*/2 * * * * /bin/echo "hello"
This setting sends a mail to the user, instead of displaying on the screen. Now tried changing the setting to:
*/2 * * * * /bin/echo "hello" > /dev/tty1
Now I can see the text on the screen, but this setting comes with a catch. What would happen if the user changes the terminal. for instance if he gets into tty2, he wont have write access on tty1. So the user gets a mail saying "permission denied". Is there any way that I can force the user to use a particular terminal or can a cron job be set in a way such that the user would get the text irrespective of the terminal he logs in.

Mar 16, 2011I'm new to Fedora and the Red Hat way of doing things, having been a Ubuntu/Mint user for the last 5-6 years. I've been using Fedora for my daily computer now for the last 3-4 months - a change that has definitely been for the better! However, earlier this morning I went to install a .rpm, and yum output via terminal the following error:

Jun 2, 2011I want local programmatic access to ssh output in Mac Terminal. First, I tried redirecting the output of each command to a file. The file was perfect, but of course it was on the remote server, and an sftp for each command output seemed a little.. Next, I tried to Applescript Terminal, but it only gives access to the currently visible text in a tab (i.e. if half the output has already scrolled out of sight, it doesn't get returned - useless).
Last, I tried piping ssh to tee (e.g. ssh user@host | tee output.txt). This almost worked. I have the output in a local file, but there are a lot of unwanted characters mixed in. For example, every time I hit backspace, there's a ^H in the file. There's also text like "[0m[K" which is harder to get rid of.
