Resolution for error: su: failed to execute /bin/bash: Resource temporarily unavailable
Resolution for error: su: failed to execute /bin/bash: Resource temporarily unavailable
Today we met a problem about user cannot su to a general dev account with the error message below:
su: failed to execute /bin/bash: Resource temporarily unavailable
And checked the /var/log/message and /var/log/secure, found there is no resource available for the fork() to generate new processes.
sshd[22208]: error: do_exec_pty: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
Refer to: http://www.csl.mtu.edu/cs4411.ck/www/NOTES/process/fork/create.html if you are interested in fork function.
Then we checked the max user processes for this user:
[test@hostname ~]$ ulimit -a
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority (-e) 0
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 127951
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 64
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1024
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority (-r) 0
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 4096
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
[Test@lvs-genas-008 log]$ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
1536 0 3247300
Or use lsof to check the opening files || processes.
Opened too files.
Resolution: we just need to increase the open files param.
补充说明:ulimit为shell内建指令,可用来控制shell执行程序的资源。
参 数:
-a 显示目前资源限制的设定。
-c <core文件上限> 设定core文件的最大值,单位为区块。
-d <数据节区大小> 程序数据节区的最大值,单位为KB。
-f <文件大小> shell所能建立的最大文件,单位为区块。
-H 设定资源的硬性限制,也就是管理员所设下的限制。
-m <内存大小> 指定可使用内存的上限,单位为KB。
-n <文件数目> 指定同一时间最多可开启的文件数。
-p <缓冲区大小> 指定管道缓冲区的大小,单位512字节。
-s <堆叠大小> 指定堆叠的上限,单位为KB。
-S 设定资源的弹性限制。
-t <CPU时间> 指定CPU使用时间的上限,单位为秒。
-u <程序数目> 用户最多可开启的程序数目。
-v <虚拟内存大小> 指定可使用的虚拟内存上限,单位为KB。
Append a new line to current user’s ./bash_profile
ulimit –n 65535
next time when get into this user’s shell, will be good, no need to restart server.
Third way is change below file directly:
/etc/security/limits.conf
@test soft nofile 65535
@test hard nofile 65535
@test soft nproc 65535
@test hard nproc 65535
After a while the file will sync to server, also no need to reboot server.
