Re: [cobalt-users] No load, all memory used after improper shutdown



Two of my RaQ4i's were unexpectedly cycled yesterday (power blink, bad UPS).
Neither were properly shut down, both came back up immediately. Now they
both are using swap memory, though neither has any load whatsoever. Here's
the top output from one, a 4i with 512MB:

Here is the top from my box, running after a few days since last boot (about a month)

I've been told it's normal for the memory to be held in buff and for very little to be shown as free. The number shown right now is during a fairly active time and in the middle of the AM it will sometimes show up to 200 or so mb free.

What I see does not look too abnormal. Have you tried a normal reboot after this shutdown incident?
