January 20, 20242 yr I am running an Ubuntu VM on Unraid. I am exposing my shares through "9p Mode" to the VM. Inside Ubuntu, I mount the exposed shares like this: sudo mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio "backup" /media/share/backup I have a script that uses rsync to sync the files from these mounted shares onto an internal disk drive. The issues that I am facing, is that rsync sometimes reports "cannot allocate memory": rsync: [sender] readdir("/media/share/backup/myfolder"): Cannot allocate memory (12) There are plenty of memory available on the VM, so that is no issue. The next time I run the job, it might go through as normal. But I would like to get rid of these issues. The question is: Is there some kind of memory allocation/limit to the virtio/9p as well? If yes - is there some way to increase it to avoid these errors?
