Hi, I have a fc14 box that's been running well for quite a while. For the past few weeks, however, something happens that causes the box to thrash like crazy until it eventually consumes all its available memory and swap, and oopses while the kernel struggles to kill processes in an attempt to free memory.
I've got a few VMs running, a browser or two, and a bunch of terminals, but I have 16GB of RAM on my desktop, and no condition should ever exist where it should kill the box because of lack of memory.
After all that explanation, what I'd like to do is enable one of the memory alerts in GKrellM, but I can't find any suggestions of what to use for the "Alarm command" or "Warn command". Is there a WAV file or something that I should use there to have it play when a memory limit is reached, or does it have to be a whole command that is run?
Suggestions sure appreciated. Thanks, Alex
