Hi all,

I have a server that a couple of times each day squirts out messages
about page allocation failures (python: page allocation failure.
order:3, mode:0x20). What's the reason for this, and could it affect
the stability of the box?

The server that squirts these messages just crashed, for no apparent
reason, so that's why I'm wondering. It's a UML box. Also, I'm
wondering, are there any howto's for tweaking /proc settings so that the
machine becomes more stable? Are there any settings for increasing the
verbosity of the kernel log so that the reason for a server crashing is
easier to find?

Thanks in advance, and please CC me any replies :)

Regards,

Morten
