ERROR: Cannot allocate memory

Anyone else run into that while trying to make config changes?

There seems to be plenty of memory free

under what condition--you showed the stat sys output, but nothing more, i.e. what was the command that caused the "cannot allocate memory".

No I was attempting to add a responder policy.  stat/show commands work fine.

Danm,

Can you post the responder policy you were creating? Most likely it was something in the policy itself that was triggering the error.

This is with 8.1 57.5 and I had no problem doing this on my other netscalers so I'm guessing it's not command specific.  I opened up a ticket with citrix.  Just wanted to see if anyone else has run into this.

yea, looks odd.  I haven't seen this before.  You may want to try getting the output from:

nsconmsg -s ConMEM=1 -d oldconmsg

You will get a line such as:

TotalMEM:  573877211     Allocated:  234704955(40.90%)   ActualInUse: 174989227(30.49%)    Free:  339172256

You want to make sure the allocated isn't high vs. the actualInUse.
