Hi All,

Mysql service is going down continously in my system due to lack of memory 
space.

I checked the messages log and found the following error message.

All mbuf clusters exhausted, please see tuning(7).

I have no idea about mbuf cluster. Can anyone please help me to fix the issue.

I hope the information below will help you.

Following is the output of top.
