[hobbit] Status Unavailable

[Vernon Everett]

Nope!
Hashed out the [larrdcolumn] and [infocolumn] sections.
Had a look. Saw your shared mem segments.
Didn't even look for semaphores.
Decided a reboot is probably easier.
Hobbit started on its own. 
It looked promising, and then after about 2 minutes, back to its usual
crap.

Hi Vernon,

could you try disabling the [larrdcolumn] and [infocolumn] tasks in your
hobbitlaunch.cfg ? These are no longer used, and I suspect that the code
in hobbitd that handles these messages is somewhat flaky.

If hobbitd refuses to stop, you'll have to do it with a "kill -9". When
you do that, please check that there are no ressources left allocated by
hobbitd:

  login as the hobbit user
  run "ipcs -m" and "ipcs -s"

If you see something like

  hobbit at osiris:~$ ipcs -m

  ------ Shared Memory Segments --------
  key        shmid      owner      perms      bytes      nattch
status
  0x01020b1f 482148354  hobbit    600        102400     2

  hobbit at osiris:~$ ipcs -s

  ------ Semaphore Arrays --------
  key        semid      owner      perms      nsems
  0x01020b1f 3276801    hobbit    600        3
  0x02020b1f 3309570    hobbit    600        3
  0x03020b1f 3342339    hobbit    600        3
  0x04020b1f 3375108    hobbit    600        3
  0x05020b1f 3407877    hobbit    600        3
  0x06020b1f 3440646    hobbit    600        3

then it hasn't cleaned up properly and you should either reboot the box
or use "ipcrm -m <shmid>" and "ipcrm -s <semid>" to delete these.


Regards,
Henrik
