We are running opengfs in a shared root environment. When the RC scripts have finished running the init command
spawns multiple mingetty programs (based on /etc/inittab):
1:12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6
I believe all are trying to lock and add an entry to /var/run/utmp.
Attached is the ps output and traces from kdb. Unfortunately, the last trace should have been the OOPsing process
but it doesn't provide much information.
