Problem with free swap space

[ardli]

Hello,

I have problem with swap space in OTRS.
How to fix it?

Free Swap Space (%) (56)
There should be more than 60% free swap space.

Problem Used Swap Space (MB) (862.015625)
There should be no more than 200 MB swap space used.

Well your server is (or was) overloaded, using up all your RAM and started using your swap space. OTRS is simply warning you because swap is extremely slow compared to RAM and will cause bad performance.

So, to solve this problem i had to resize RAM?

That *could* be a solution. Other possibilities:

- your webserver is spawning too much threads -> change your webserver config
- your database is using too much cache -> change your database config
- other applications are using too much ram -> fix whatever is causing it

You will have to investigate what is using RAM on your server, this might not even be related to OTRS
