Hi!
I have a relative high traffic server, running Apache, MySQL and Drupal.
With FreeBSD 6.0 and 6.1-PRERELEASE i got some distressing "netstat -m"
outputs.
Can anybody explain for me what does this message mean exactly?
"16064849/9164254/9384500 requests for mbufs denied (mbufs/clusters/mbuf
+clusters)"
And what can i do with this?
Full "netstat -m" output:
$ netstat -m

Sorry for my bad english.
Thank you!
In my case, that happens when the number of free pages become less
than vm.v_free_min. In such case, we drain cached buckets from zones
(including mbuf zone) to the system to get more free pages, and
disable bucket allocation. As the result, we cannot get a bucket when
freeing a mbuf to the zone and just do internal free, counting up the
number of allocation failure, i.e. the number of "requests for mbufs
denied".
I don't know whether this (as to counting up the number of failure in
such case) is expected or not.
