syslog.log ---> log

Manuales — Fri, 16 Dec 2005 12:56:08 GMT

what is the meaning next messages on syslog.log with hp-ux 10.0 operating system?

1.- ps2_readbyte_timeout: no byte after 500 uSec
2.- Dec 16 11:38:18 sapa02 vmunix: Networking memory for fragment reassembly is restricted to 222978048
bytes
3.- Dec 16 11:38:18 sapa02 vmunix: WARNING: Insufficient space on dump device to save full crashdump.

Thanks, Manuales.

1 - not too sure...check:

2 - May be related to netmemmax - This specifies how much memory can be used for holding partial internet-protocol(IP) messages in memory.

3 - means you don't have enough space on your dump device to save a full crash dump.
Do a lvlnboot -v
That will tell you your dump device - probably same as swap - needs to be same ammunt of ram installed.

2. & 3. Did you ever replace that drive that held your swap space?

What is the size of var and how much space do you have left?

Manuales --

For #3, it means you don't have enough dump space. You can add to your dump space using secondary swap via the "crashconf" command .. do a 'man crashconf' for details.

For #1, it's generally a case of having the ps2 driver in the kernel but not having any ps2 devices on the system.

Best regards,

Hi,

1. You are getting this message because you have the ps2 driver in the kernel, but you don't have any ps2 devices plugged into your system. You need to plug-in a PS2 device to the system.

2. It is a normal informative message. It merely means the amount of memory that is available for the network to use for the IP stack reassembly of packets coming into the system. Typically it is 10% of the total
memory. I guess it would only show after a reboot.

3. As indicated , you need to configure dump device with sufficient space ( equal to RAM amount) to save full crashdump wither with separate dump device or larger /var filesystem run # lvlnboot -v to check.
