Greetings,
Several times now, I've been untarring some files in my dom0 and they've
been killed by the oom-killer. I originally thought it might be because
they were not in the foreground as I normally use screen. I just tried
again without screen and it was killed again.
I compiled Xen from a nightly snapshot that I downloaded a couple of
weeks ago.
xen root # ls -al xen-2.0-testing-src.tgz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2432727 Apr 29 08:29 xen-2.0-testing-src.tgz
The system is a dual processor P2 300 Dell Workstation. It has only
128MB RAM total. I've allocated 42MB RAM to dom0. dom0 also mounts a
256MB swap partition.
Each time I've reviewed the /var/log/messages, there had been plenty of
free swap space when the process was killed.
I'm attaching sections from /var/log/messages where the process is
killed. Please let me know what else would be useful.
What should my next step be?
