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

Dear All, At least in three different GNU/Linux systems, the parallel function from the multicore package leaves defunct (zombie) R processes. For instance library(multicore) parallel(1:5) collect() After collect, the child process (with pid as given by collect) is left defunct.

Hi, I am in a very awkward situation and need some kind of immediate fix up. I had installed dovecot in my organization as part of migration of email server. The setup involves sendmail, dovecot (imaps+pop3s) and webmail (squirrelmail) running on apache webserver. All was working fine until one day I found a lot of defunct processes on system related to dovecot. dovecot-auth, imap-login and

Hi all, I have a long term running program which call libguestfs to check VM images. but i found that each time after i call guestfs_close(), the qeum-system-x86 process which is forked by libguestfs changes to <defunct> process. as docs of guestfs_close said "This closes the connection handle and frees up all resources used.", so this is a bug or is there any other way to

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

I have limited information at the moment (currently distracted by other projects) but I'm hoping that someone has already found and solved this problem. I have a v1.2.1 installed on my development box waiting for me to tinker with the configuration. On several occasions, I have noticed that all the dovecot processes are listed as "defunct". I don't recall seeing anything

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

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.

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

Hello, I've recently upgraded Dovecot from 1.1.16 to 1.2.4 on FreeSBD 6.3- RELEASE running on old Alphaserver 1200.

hi friends, I have been playing with wine for quiet some time now. I wanted to check how many instance of wine can it run, and started opening wordpad.
