OK, this is Screwed-Up(tm). Finally got my co-located box for Slash (and other things). Now, the slashd process is pretty much running out of control. It's in the R state, taking 99% of a CPU (there are two). Now, whenever I try to access anything in the Slash site's log directory (containing slashd.log), the process (ls, mc, less, etc.) hangs and is in a D state. Whenever I try to strace any of those processes, the same fate happens to the strace process. I can't kill -9 any of them!!! I know you can't kill a D process but why not the R slashd? In fact, running reboot, the same thing happened to the shutdown process! Aaargh! It's on an XFS filesystem. I wonder if that has anything to do with it. Any ideas for how to get out of this mess? The box is a 6-hour drive away and they charge $25 for power cycling, so I'd only want to use that as a last resort. Thanks, Micah |
