Hi guys,
What is the commands/steps to reduce the memory when the swap memory is above the 0?
Use the following steps:
- open up the box
- remove as much memory as you need
- be happy 😎
If I understand your question; you are showing full physical memory utilization AND you are starting to see swap usage (>0). My inclination is to reboot/restart the gateway during a maintenance window. Linux has a tendency to used free memory to cache frequently used files to speed up the performance of the device. Unfortunately, this also decreases the "free" memory. The solution is the reboot; normally once every 6 months with a failover, actually not a bad idea since you are confirming the boot sector.
HTH!
Hi Stelios,
I suggest to start from investigation step and make sure, that there are no configuration problems. Please provide more information about your device, version, setup and blades which you are using.
