hi guys
I am experiencing rsync freezes on my production environment. The rsync
process tries to sync file systems between 2 servers over ssh. Both the
environments are connected by a 512 kbps vpn connection.
Taking cue from other posters to this group, I tried taking a truss dump
for the rsync process to figure out whats going on.
On the source server I can see the process slows down every time the
following truss output is logged
>>>> write(4, " e r s i o n C a l c u l".., 639) = 639
<<<<
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) = 0
poll(0xFFBE6F38, 1, 60000) (sleeping...)
Does any body know what could be causing this.
I am attaching the truss output of the source and the remote rsync
process.
Any insight will be helpful.
Environment
------------
Solaris 8
Rsync 2.5.6
OpenSSH_3.4p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090607f
Thanks for your time
