Hi, In KubeVirt we are right now starting libvirt via a wrapper shell script. I want to remove that wrapper and directly start libvirtd from our golang code. This means that our golang code is PID 1 in the container and we start libvirtd as a fork from there. When I did this, strange things started to happen. Libvirt was still able to start and manage qemu processes, but stopping the qemu

Hi, We've been using a 0.99 version of Dovecot for nearly a year without problems, but due to a server death I had to reinstall with the same configuration as before, but more recent versions of the software, on different hardware. This time though, every few days IMAP login and access fails, and the output of ps ax shows entries such as [imap-login] <defunct> and [imap]

Hello, I've recently upgraded Dovecot from 1.1.16 to 1.2.4 on FreeSBD 6.3- RELEASE running on old Alphaserver 1200. Some time after this upgrade all user's MUAs showed error that user password was not accepted. I've noticed many zombies of imap and pop3 processes on my server (all in defunct state). Looks like when "login_max_processes_count" was reached, Dovecot

Hi, I'm using the SJava package and am trying to get event handling to work, but no examples from http://www.omegahat.org/RSJava/examples/ that have any event handling work in R 1.9.0. I think the examples were all written around 2001 so most probably used an older version of R. The error message that displays in R is: Error: 'restart' is defunct. See ?Defunct. The restart

Hello, We are running Asterisk-1.0.12 in a CentOS 4-4.2 system, kernel 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp. We have some custom AGI, and when we launch Asterisk the system works fine. But **after some time**, each AGI execution generates a zombie <defunct> process. We believe that it's not a problem in the AGI code, because Asterisk+AGI is working fine in the first "n" minutes/hours. This

Hi, Sorry, I should not have removed infomation on xend. image.py, line 399, in configVNC config.remove([''vncpasswd'', vncpasswd_vmconfig]) When vncpasswd is removed, qemu-dm cannot be started in reboot of hvm domain.

Hello, I'm experiencing a weird problem which I haven't been able to track down for 8+ weeks now. Situation is as follows: There is a nigthly backup from our main server to a backup server. The server base directory is mounted there read-only via NFS. Then we do something like this: 1. Duplicate the contents of yesterday's backup into /sicherungen/2007/02/02/01.41/ 2. Rsync

Hello We are running samba on SGI/SUN/HP fileservers. We saw a problem on the SGI fileservers. After a while a lot of defunct smbd deamons were hanging and occupying the slots in the process table. We saw the problem with IRIX 5.2 and samba 1.9.16p11 and IRIX 6.2 and samba 1.9.17.p4 . Has anybody seen this problem before? This is a serious problem, because the smbd daemons are filling the

Hi! I have written an R-package (http://tocsy.agnld.uni-potsdam.de/wavelets/index.html) in R 2.4.1 that requires the ts() function. Users using R 2.5.0 now have a problem installing this package.

I don't recall seeing anything
