A user has a large fortran program that gives the following error message
when compiling:
Fatal: Insufficient virtual memory to continue compilation.
This is on a GS60E, TU64 version 5.0a, 4GB RAM. Compiler is f77 V5.3-915.
swapon -s shows 3.73GB of allocated space and 98% free.
I have attempted to monitor swap via top and dxproctuner, but do not get an
indication that
swap is going to zero.
This program is compiled successfully on another machine which has 8678MB of
swap.
I would like to know how I can determine whether I truly do not have enough
swap, or
whether the compiler may not know how much swap is available? Also, how can
I "monitor"
swap while compiling to get a better picture of what is going on? Lastly,
how do I add additional
swap space. On SGI, one can add by creating a swap file and telling swap
about it. Is it that
simple on Compaq?
Thanks,
Ric
