<pre>I think that my vps automatically turns in stand by mode when is idle</pre> <br> <br>That shouldn’t happen by default. Do you have any logs that show it happening?
I think that my vps automatically turns in stand by mode when is idle how can i see/configure the settings in centos 6 ?
I’m not sure what you’re referring to – what does <strong>What about standby when is idle ? </strong> mean?
Done , i will see if still gets me the out of memory error… <br>What about standby when is idle ? how can i deactivate that ? <br> <br>Sorry for my bad english
Try adding swap: <br> <br><pre> <br>echo “vm.swappiness=0” | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.cnf <br>sudo sysctl -p <br>sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=256k <br>sudo mkswap /swapfile <br>sudo chown root:root /swapfile <br>sudo chmod 0600 /swapfile <br>sudo swapon /swapfile <br>echo “/swapfile none swap sw 0 0” | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab <br></pre> <br> <br>That should fix the running out of memory issues.
My website goes down , the droplet is on but tells me someting like: Out of memory… and i must reboot the droplet in order to fix the issue
What do you mean by <code>My droplet keeps getting out of memory</code>? Do programs keep crashing ?
