ALM-12027 Host PID Usage Exceeds the Threshold
Description
The system checks the PID usage every 30 seconds and compares the actual PID usage with the default threshold. This alarm is generated when the PID usage exceeds the threshold.
This alarm is cleared when the host PID usage is less than or equal to the threshold.

Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
ServiceName |
Specifies the service for which the alarm is generated. |
RoleName |
Specifies the role for which the alarm is generated. |
HostName |
Specifies the host for which the alarm is generated. |
Trigger Condition |
Generates an alarm when the actual indicator value exceeds the specified threshold. |
Impact on the System
No PID is available for new processes and service processes are unavailable.
Possible Causes
Too many processes are running on the node. You need to increase the value of pid_max. The system is abnormal.
Procedure
- Increase the value of pid_max.
- On the MRS cluster details page, click the alarm from the real-time alarm list. In the Alarm Details area, obtain the IP address of the host for which the alarm is generated.
- Log in to the node for which the alarm is generated.
- Run the cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max command to check the value of pid_max.
- If the PID usage exceeds the threshold, run the following command to double the value of pid_max:
echo New pid_max value > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
Example:
echo 65536 > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max
- Wait 5 minutes and check whether the alarm is cleared.
- If yes, no further action is required.
- If no, go to 2.
- Check whether the system environment is abnormal.
- Collect fault information.
- On MRS Manager, choose .
- Contact technical support engineers for help. For details, see technical support.
