I have kernel error on my Fedora Core 4 server:
s1 kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 208k freed
and my server is down 10 times a day!
Can my tech support fix that or should I reinstall server via rescue mode?

The server was down. So I had to reboot and run e2fsck to fix it. I/O error could it mean HDD problem? (because I just change this server to new HDD 3 weeks ago)

I just try to restart csf in my Centos server with Direct Admin and i got this error:
Quote:
*WARNING* Since the Virtuozzo VPS iptables ip_conntrack_ftp kernel module is currently broken you have to open a PASV port hole in iptables for incoming FTP connections to work correctly.

I think i don't have that module at all or not?

we have one box in hivelocity.net that has been down so many times this month that we were forced to remove links to siteuptime where we were once so proud of having a 99.7% uptime for 3 years in theplanet.
syslog shows that just before crashing, these entries were made:
kernel: kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:479

dmesg also shows this:

i've googled these messages and they point to ram problems.
hivelocity.net claims to have done diagnostics on the box and that there were no problems reported.
they said this is a result of a sys configuration problem made by us.
any ideas?
running centos/virtuozzo 2.6.18-028stab062.3
when i configure vmware it asks at one point for kernel header files. where would i find them to match the current kernel?
i asked at parallels forums but help there is very scarce. i checked openVZ repositories and they dont yet have headers for this version.
what are my options? i have one last windows machine left and want to run it in VMware.
Last year I ordered a new server with Centos 4.3 and it had the kernel kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2ELsmp installed. It runned fine and I didn't update any packages since then.
Today I started getting a problem where both mysqld and kswapd0 uses very high amounts of CPU, spiking up to 100% and my memory usage is at 99% all the time. The problem seems exactly the same as the one mentioned in this thread.
In that thread the exact same kernel is said to be insecure and to cause this problem. I also came across a centOS bug that reports this problem with high cpu, mem usage and mysql & kswapd0 consuming all resources.
In the linked thread the person solved the problem by upgrading to kernel 2.6.9-42 using rpms but others recommended a newer kernel or a custom compiled kernel for CentOS.
Apparently when they used yum it said 34.0.2 was the latest kernel.
What should I do to upgrade the kernel, which version should i upgrade to, and where do I get it from? I won't be able to compile a custom kernel and I've only installed basic rpm packages before.
I am trying to install the kernel source.
I have downloaded kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm
I am using fedora 6 64bit.
here are my current kernels:

kernel-2.6.20-1.2944.fc6
kernel-devel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6
kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6
here is what I seen when I installed kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6.src.rpm

View 11 Replies View Relatedas part of a project I have lately been looking into various aspects of kernel tuning. Most notably lately tuning the TCP stack for more efficient memory usage/throughput.
Thought I would start this thread to mention some of the tools I'd found for doing testing and see what anyone else had to recommend.
So far my favorite of the bunch is nuttcp. Its easy to use and gives a very good idea of how much of your bandwidth you are able to utilize.
A few interesting web pages are as follows for anyone interested in the topic:

I have compiled kernels from source in desktops stations, but never in remote servers.. do you have any recommendations to do this at a Dual Xeon 3.2 RHE 5 + cPanel server? Oh.. almost forgot.. I will also compile it with GRsecurity.
Should I use a src kernel from RedHat, or a kernel.org latest kernel?
I installed CentOS 5 on a server with 2 quad core CPU's and 4GB of RAM. After the installation is done and during boot I see a warning that says "Warning only 3GB will be used".
So, just to check, I installed CentOS 4.4 and it sees all 4GB of RAM.
Are there any memory limitations on the distro? or could it be that the desktop kernels made their way into the iso's from upstream?
I am recompiling the kernel with the src rpm. I haven't been able to get any kernel to boot properly since i got this server.
I really could use some help, below i posted lspci, lsmod and cat interrupts. What I really need help with is which kernel modules are necessary for my server.
lspci: [url]
lsmod: [url]
interrupts: [url]
I have already tried a kernel with ext3, and sata support compiled in but it never boots.
