@cjervis this issues have been killing me big time. After so much of investigation i found out that we have to edit the file "10-perfmgmt" under "/etc/sudoers.d"( I am using rhel 5) by adding the below lines:-

 

root  ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

%admin  ALL=(ALL) ALL

%sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

userid   ALL=(ALL)NOPASSWD:ALL

 

Note - userid is the id through which you are logging to your linux box

 

id.JPG

 

You have to login as "another user" by giving your id and password and yes you are done. It won't fail again with the error "Exhausted available......" . I mean that's what happened with me.

 

Give a try..

 

 

Thanks!

On Ubuntu,

 

Edit : 

 /etc/sudoers

Add on the end of file:

userid ALL=(ALL)NOPASSWD:ALL

 

Instead of userid put your usernam with sudo privileges.
