<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Folks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just wondering if anybody has any experience with xymongen hanging. I have a large number of xymongen processes being kicked off sometime over the weekend, unfortunately they are owned by apache and have a PPID of 1 so I can’t tell how
they were started. I’m presuming either xymoncmd but I can’t see anything in the crontab for xymon or in tasks.cfg that would kick off the snapshots and reporting processes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">These then sit for a very long time (> 24hrs) while trying to read a data file from a specific server.<o:p></o:p></p>
