hard disk have enough swap area by df -h but in task manager is showing swap less how to done this?
I'm administering a Debian Linux x86_64 server with 125GB RAM, a 10GB swap partition and a swappiness value of 60.
A free -gw output prints:

I am having issues with being unable to SSH into my server, running Debian 11. If I try to make a folder or file, I get an error that says mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/tmp/test’: Read-only file system.
As suggested by this link, and a large swath of others, I can fix this by entering safe mode and running fsck.ext4 /dev/sda, but it only helps for 24-48 hours.
I got a new SSD about two weeks ago (s ...
I have a question about a new server that I want to buy. This server has 2CPUs and 32gb of ram in total. My question is: can I use all the 32gb of ram for proxmox, and therefore for the vm, or can I use only 16gb?
I read a bit and found that DDR3L is a low voltage ram (1.3 something ) and on the most of the boards i am usually seeing DDR3L PC3.
But i stumble upon DDR3L PC4.
What this PC4 stands for?
This is a fairly specific, but basic question regarding a specific computer system in combination with Linux EDAC. If you're the TL;DR type, please skip to the section labeled Question. Otherwise, please bear with me as some information is in needed.

I know that it is ok to have free memory close to 0 and all memory in cached
But it cause problem with an application
I need the server no to cache so much and release memory back to free
I tried doing it with sudo sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=200
But it had no effect

I'm trying to dump memory from a process on my Linux machine using GDB, but I'm trying to automate this using a script.
So far I've been using the following commands (example):
$ gdb --pid [pid]
(gdb) dump memory dump_file 0x00621000 0x00622000
Is there a way to do this using only one command that I can implement in a shell script? Or is there a way to perform gdb commands using shell scripts?
Any ...
From what I could understand from this change in Linux reported memory usage, /proc/meminfo reports MemFree as currently unused RAM, and MemAvailable as RAM currently available to new processes without swapping.
From this, shouldn't MemFree be contained in MemAvailable, thus being always less or equal than it? I guess unused RAM is also available to new processes without swapping. Or am I misunde ...
I need to upgrade our HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 server with some more RAM. Before I buy anything I just wanted to confirm that it is okay to mix brands/models of memory as long as the type/frequency is the same? I know this is fine for desktop hardware, but just want to be sure it isn't going to cause an issue with server hardware.
This is the model of memory DIMMs that are installed currently:

Is there a way to choose a VM or other service in AWS to dynamically add memory in case of extra load?
I am going to deploy a small EC2 in AWS. And I don't need too much memory because it will be loaded only while downloading reports from DB. So basically I am looking for the cheapest possible solution, as the machine will be idle 90 % of the time.
I have a server that, every now and then reports Hardware Errors to the OS, but otherwise runs without any noticeable issues.
Today I found this while walking by the monitor attached to it.
Can anyone tell me what this means? Is this something I need to worry about? Are there logfiles I can look deeper into? Some weeks prior, I noticed, that one of the RAM sticks wasn't detected by the system, it was only ...
I am hosting a WordPress website on a DigitalOcean droplet (1GB RAM). The website's MySQL database crashes occasionally, which causes the website to show "Error establishing database connection". Memory usage dropped around 2:40 am, indicating that this is when the database crashed. I checked the MySQL log file for that day, and the earliest entry was at 10:47 am. Here is the beginning of the log file:

is there any advice?
I've been reading about RoCE and it talks about transferring data zero copy between the memory in one server directly to the memory of an application in another server. Most articles make a point to say this is done without involvement from the CPU. I don't understand how this is accomplished though. How does the data get from the adapter to the RAM without any processing from the CPU? How does it know ...

I'm having a relatively new hardware (i5 CPU x64) with a legacy 32 bit Windows 10 install. It is running older company software so the upgrade to 64 bit is not practical for several reasons.
I know that for longer time the 32 bit Windows had the option in some cases to enable PAE (Physical Address Extension) to increase the 32 bit address limit to 36 bits. This was available since Windows XP SP2. ...
This is a technical question about what would happen if one adds a 512MB memory expansion module to the HP Color LaserJet CP5225, or any other recent current modern Laserjet, while the manual states that the maximum supported memory module size is 256mb.
The manual states that the maximum supported memory is 256mb DDR2 SO-DIMM. What does supported mean in here? Does it mean that the printer can o ...

I have a Supermicro X8DT6 system that has suddenly developed a high rate of uncorrectable ECC errors. The system was running error-free until just a few days ago, and now it is experiencing uncorrectable ECC errors (and associated spontaneous reboots) many times per day. The errors are not isolated to a single DIMM.
System details: Single X5650 CPU, 48G DDR3 ram @1333Mhz in 6 DIMMs. Running D ...
I have a computer with an ASUS C422 SAGE 10G motherboard and a Xeon W-2125 CPU. It has 4 Kingston 16 GB DIMMS with ECC installed. Recently, I wanted to upgrade the memory, and ordered 4 new 32 GB DIMMS, also with ECC. But these are not detected by the system at all, the BIOS shows 64 GB memory, and Linux likewise shows the slots as empty (from dmidecode).
The only notable differences I can find is th ...
I have a problem with one of my servers.
Web server works well in 'normal' time period but one or two times per day there are spikes in RAM memory usage.
I put the Zabbix monitoring tool there, and got something like this from the server.
Those circled spikes are above 90% of RAM utilization that make problems
Also, I put there my script for memory usage that gives me something ...
I've got two identical intel CPUs in an Asus board with one stick of ram each. On power up, board immediately throws code 19 ("SB initialize before installed memory"). I've tested each CPU individually, as well as each stick of ram. When using a single cpu, the system boots fine with either one or two sticks of ram installed. The only time I have issues is when I install the second CPU. Am I missing som ...
I am unfortunately having a problem with my HP ProLiant DL380e G8 server running Fedora Server 34. I suspect these are memory errors or a DIMM being/going bad, however I'm not sure.

I am building a NAS (running TrueNAS/FreeNAS) using a SuperMicro A2SDi-8C+-HLN4F motherboard. I ordered 2 sticks of this Samsung C-Die RAM from a supplier but they could only send me 1 as it was the last they had in stock. I ordered the same RAM from another supplier but instead received this Samsung B-Die RAM. I found out this was not a mistake as the C-Die is EOL and the B-Die is its replacement.
