Kernel Update, 2.6.32.12 Now Available

A new kernel, 2.6.32.12, is now available for slices in our STL-B, DFW, and ORD data centers. This kernel is not affected by the memory calculation bug that was present in our last two releases.

If you wish to upgrade the kernel on your slice to the latest available, you can do so with just a few clicks in the SliceManager. The following blog post details the steps that are necessary to upgrade your slice's kernel.

Please note that this process does require a reboot of your slice.

As always, we are available 24/7 in SliceChat or via email at support@slicehost.com to assist you with any issues you may have.

    It does report memory correctly now.

    It seems to be using less memory than the previous kernel..ie free -m was yielding about 95 used and now it’s showing 75 on my 384 slice.

    -/+ buffers/cache: 75 299
