[Bug 461241] New: hard hangs and unkillable processes
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461241 Summary: hard hangs and unkillable processes Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: augustmiles@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other I have just updated to 11.1. From 11.0 Our machine is a dual process xeon, used as a web server/imap mail. It is administered remotely over ssh. I had a imap process on my server using 100% of CPU. I tried using kill -9 to stop it without success. I then tried taking down dovecot imap with "rcdovecot stop" at this point I could no longer get the command prompt. I am now unable to login to the machine- it does answer a ping. I am filing under kernel- a runaway process should not bring down the connectivity of a machine in any situation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sorry for the dumb question, but is "the updated kernel package" supposed to be the one in http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/SL111_BRANCH/openSUSE_11.1... ?
Yes, you can use that one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yes, you can use that one.
kernel-default-2.6.27.8-11.1.x86_64.rpm from the url above does not fix the problem for us, an unkillable imap process appeared again and the machine was not able to shut down and reboot by itself (I am not on site to check details)... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
