Max Memory Error Event

Help
1

Hi Team,

We recently saw two error events in mv_events related to max_memory. As per doc, this error means max memory has been hit. But as you see below memory is within limits and no where near max memory.

ERROR| MAX_MEMORY| {“actual_memory_mb”:“50197.375000”,“maximum_memory_mb”:“89454”}

Am I missing something or is this false alert?

Thanks,
Nikhil

Hi Nikhil,

Its likely by the time the event was raised the memory use had dropped (Query using up a lot of memory had completed or failed). The stats reported in the event are grabbed after we had a memory allocation failure itself.
