Kernel messages about exceeding system limits

There are cases when the system kernel will advise you that system limits are being exceeded. These messages appear on your console. Some of the messages are advisory only, but others precede a system panic in which case additional diagnostic messages are printed, requiring you to reboot. If you encounter any of the messages listed in the following table, refer to the associated tunable parameter for additional information.

iget - inode table overflow	S5NINODE
sfs_iget - inode table overflow	SFSNINODE
vxfs: vx_iget - inode table overflow	VXFSNINODE
Timeout table overflow	NCALL
newproc - no procs	NPROC
dquot table full	NDQUOT
configured MAXCLSYSPRI out of range	MAXCLSYSPRI
swapdel - too few free pages	MINASMEM
modadm - configured kernel resource exhausted	BDEV_RESERVE CDEV_RESERVE FMOD_RESERVE VFS_RESERVE
