Often, it tries to allocate and pass in a huge buffer to make sure it doesn't ask for more than the kernel needs to respond with. In some cases, it doesn't need to allocate such a big buffer. I fixed "gfs_tool counters" for a similar ENOMEM problem with bugzilla record 229461 about a year ago. (I don't know if that bug record is public or locked so you may not be able to access it, which is out of my control--sorry). I should probably go through all the other gfs_tool functions, including the two you mentioned, and figure out their minimum memory requirements and change the code so it doesn't ask for so much memory. Perhaps you can open up a bugzilla record so I can schedule this work? Also, you didn't say whether you're on RHEL4/Centos4/similar, or RHEL5/Centos5/similar.
