vm_fault: pager read error, pid 98103 (rrdtool)
-
Hey I've seen this post regarding the vm_fault with page error on this forums before however the language was in Ukraine.
I'm running pfSense 2.8.0 CE virtualized on xcp-ng. The VM is allocated 8Gb RAM with 200 GB disk space. I've rebooted the VM however I'm still getting:
Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool) Aug 24 08:28:01 kernel vm_fault: pager read error, pid 28551 (rrdtool)
From what I've read this seems like a hardware error, however this is in a virtual environment. I don't see any error within the xcp-ng hypervisor host or other VM's running on the hypervisor. Am I best running a mem86 test on the host, see if there is failing RAM -- replace if needed -- and if not recreate pfsense VM?
