DCO 8.0.1: Virtual memory capacity???

[DCIM_Support]

Question: Do our DCO 8.0.1, have the correct: Virtual memory capacity, or???, see below...

The Virtual memory size is handled automatically, in the installation script, or???

Thanks in advance,

Hi Jorgen,

When the virtual memory is used so much (almost full) that could usually be an indication that the server doesn't have enough resources (in terms of real memory). I understand that the current real memory is 32 GB, but perhaps you have a very large setup that requires even more RAM.  You might want to try the following test:

ssh log in to server, and run the following command to clear the swap (virtual memory):

  sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -a

(you will be asked to enter your password)

And then check the webmin/system information after a day or so, if the usage of the virtual memory is unchanged then it is recommended to increase the real memory.

Kind regards

just to add to Jeffs description; the virtual memory usage most likely does not indicate anything in this case. Basically the OS is free to consume virtual memory for any number of reasons. 

As longs as the Real Memory and the Disk space are ok, you are good to go.
