I planned to run 1000 processes. I have modified the maxusers to 100 and run the 1000 processes. After finished running 1000, the server hang and error message:"out of swap space" and "out of memory" Any workaround. >Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 10:08:56 -0400 (EDT) >From: Bob K <melange@yip.org> >To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG >cc: Sean Lerner <sean@yip.org>, Milky Puppy <milky@yip.org> >Subject: Worrisome kernel messages > >I woke up this morning to the following section in the output of the daily >script: > >pi kernel log messages: >> system full >> file: table is full >> file: table is full >[repeat 50 times] > >Looking in /var/log/messages: > >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi syslogd: /dev/console: Too many open files in system: >Too many open files in system >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi /kernel: file: table is full >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi last message repeated 3 times >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi /kernel: file: table is full >[repeat above 3 lines about 20 times] >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi syslogd: /var/run/utmp: Too many open files in system >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi last message repeated 3 times >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi /kernel: file: table is full >Sep 1 22:18:07 pi last message repeated 36 times >Sep 1 22:18:06 pi sendmail[13921]: WAA13918: SYSERR(UID0): queueup: >cannot create queue temp file tfWAA13918, uid=0: Bad file descriptor > >The system is running fine at the moment.
