Error writing to file - write (28: No space left on device) [IP: 185.125.190.36 80]
Describe the bug
When I started firecracker according to getting-started, an error occurred when executing unminimize: Error writing to file - write (28: No space left on device) [IP: 185.125.190.36 80].
To Reproduce
getting-started tutorial.
- Running firecracker will require two terminals, the first one running the firecracker binary, and a second one for communicating with the firecracker process via HTTP requests.
- unminimize
Expected behaviour
Error writing to file - write (28: No space left on device) [IP: 185.125.190.36 80].
Environment
host: ubuntu22.04 mircoVm: ubuntu22.04 Firecracker v1.7.0
How to configure virtual disk size?
The rootfs are small on purpose to avoid downloading/copying large files. You can tweak the ext4 rootfs with something like:
truncate -s 2G build/img/x86_64/ubuntu-22.04.ext4
resize2fs -f build/img/x86_64/ubuntu-22.04.ext4
I have allocated 10G, but an error occurred when installing python3-pip :
[2077.545011] Out of memory: Killed process 2115 (apt-get) total-vm:84300kB, anon-rss:66288kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss: 0kB, UID:0 pgtables:204kB oom_score_adj:0 Killed.
Looks like the guest does not have enough memory to run apt-get. You would need to launch the guest with more memory, 256MB for example.
Just for the record, we have never tried unminimize in our rootfs. I am not sure it will work with the current one.
Thank you so much. The command I executed is apt-get install python3 python3-pip, and the python3-pip installation process will be killed. How to increase memory in firecracker?
Thank you so much. I have successfully used configuration files to change the memory size.
When I use config-file to start firecracker and bring up the network, I get an error when trying to transfer files: scp /home/aiot/cat.jpg [email protected]:/root/firecracker error ssh: connect to host 172.16.0.2 port 22: Connection refused.
I get the same error using ssh connection: ssh -i ./ubuntu-22.04.id_rsa [email protected] error: ssh: connect to host 172.16.0.2 port 22: Connection refused.
But I can ping

What config file are you using? if it's the one referenced here then that makes sense, there's no network interfaces configured. We should fix that.
https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/blob/main/docs/network-setup.md I configured the network according to the tutorial and can download it with git, but the host cannot transfer files through ssh connection or scp. scp /home/aiot/cat.jpg [email protected]:/root/firecracker error ssh: connect to host 172.16.0.2 port 22: Connection refused.
I get the same error using ssh connection: ssh -i ./ubuntu-22.04.id_rsa [email protected] error: ssh: connect to host 172.16.0.2 port 22: Connection refused.
Hi @lebron8dong, we recently updated network setup doc with correct MAC address usage. If you use default rootfs from getting started, can you check if this update fixes your issue?
Closing the issue due to the inactivity. Feel free to reopen if the issue still exists.
