We have a machine which frequently hangs with "cant get mbufs" splattered all over the console. I am way out of my league here, any clues or pointers will be much appreciated. The machine is a DECstation 5000/200CX with 24 MB memory, 8 RZ57s and a TLZ08. Here is a vmstat, for what it's worth (I note that the Total Allocated number just keeps growing, it was ~ 800 KB right after booting, is there some upper limit?) Many thanks, John Hascall john@iastate.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------- john@fs-1> vmstat -K : : Total Allocated = 2000 KB; Total Free = 617 KB Memory Usage: Type and Number MBUF 477 DEVBUF 1 PCB 88 ZOMBIE 1 TEMP 10 MOUNT 10 NFS 358 CRED 5 RPC 2124 RMAP 1 SOCKET 59 RTABLE 4 IFADDR 2 SONAME 1 CLUSTER 173 X_DADDR 25 -- John Hascall An ill-chosen word is the fool's messenger.
