My process gets killed on linux server without manual intervention. I have verified the following scenarios.
- No manual intervention done to kill either by user or admin
- RAM and SWAP are not exhausted
- 'strace' gives me the message that "+++ killed by SIGKILL +++" - This makes me to assume that Kernel has killed the process.
The process occupies 16.5GB of virtual memory where the RAM is 16GB and the SWAP being 50GB.
Tasks: 393 total, 2 running, 387 sleeping, 4 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 12.8%us, 0.5%sy, 0.0%ni, 86.7%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st
Mem: 16015M total, 8700M used, 7315M free, 202M buffers
Swap: 51199M total, 150M used, 51048M free, 5906M cached

Could you please tell me the other reasons for Kernel to kill the process..
