I apologize for the delay in responding and want to thank you both for responding. I am positive it did not look the same before the upgrade. I actually rolled a server back to AIX 5.3TL06 so I would have something to compare against. All is well on that server and it's a full time job keeping the runaway processed killed on the other 7 servers so it does not crash or become unresponsive.
Unless I am reading the vmstat output wrong yes the box is being pressed pretty good. I played with the headers a bit trying to line up the colmuns for easier reading.
I provided IBM support with perfpmr data and it took them a bit but came back with a possible bug. After getting a core dump of the process it was confirmed that there is an APAR in the works from a previous PMR. Below is the APAR discription. This matches up with the report they sent me from the perfpmr data.
A SIGHUP'D PROCESS HANGS, REPEATEDLY CALLING PTHREAD_YIELD
An ifix is currently in the works. I just hope and pray this is the issue.
Not sure it applied to anyone but can update when it's applied if that is preferred.
not too long ago, i wrote a very short script that will bring up 4 customized xterms. The script went completely abnormal simply because of an error I had made in a while loop. This script took control of the system and rendered everything useless. The system admin team which i was part of... (4 Replies)
I got about more than 300 emails from root with the subject "Runaway processes killed" saying that "13146 12737 97.7 6 bash" . So what should I do? Any help would be appreciate (2 Replies)
Is there a way to monitor certain processes and if they hang too long to kill them, but certain scripts which are expected to take a long time to let them go?
Thank you

Hi
Is there an easy way to identify and group currently running processes into OS processes and APP processes. Not all applications are installed as packages.
Any free tools or scripts to do this?
Many thanks. (2 Replies)
Hello all,
My hosting provider has contacted me in order to notify about a runaway process issue. Here it is:
They have given me a list of those processes but I can neither analyze nor understand what I should do.

I had issues with processes locking up. This script checks for processes and kills them if they are older than a certain time.
Its uses some functions you'll need to define or remove, like slog() which I use for logging, and is_running() which checks if this script is already running so you can... (0 Replies)

fntsample - PDF and PostScript font samples generator
SYNOPSIS
fntsample [ OPTIONS ] -f FONT-FILE -o OUTPUT-FILE
fntsample -h
DESCRIPTION
fntsample program can be used to generate font samples that show Unicode coverage of the font and are similar in appearance to Unicode
charts. Samples can be saved into PDF (default) or PostScript file.
OPTIONS
fntsample supports the following options.
--font-file, -f FONT-FILE
Make samples of FONT-FILE.
--font-index, -n IDX
Font index for FONT-FILE specified using --font-file option. Useful for files that contain multiple fonts, like TrueType Collec-
tions (.ttc). By default font with index 0 is used.
--output-file, -o OUTPUT-FILE
Write output to OUTPUT-FILE.
--other-font-file, -d OTHER-FONT
Compare FONT-FILE with OTHER-FONT. Glyphs added to FONT-FILE will be highlighted.
--other-index, -m IDX
Font index for OTHER-FONT specified using --other-font-file option.
--postscript-output, -s
Use PostScript format for output instead of PDF.
--svg, -g
Use SVG format for output. The generated document contains one page. Use range selection options to specify which.
--print-outline, -l
Print document outlines data to standard output. This data can be used to add outlines (aka bookmarks) to resulting PDF file with
pdfoutline program.
--include-range, -i RANGE
Show characters in RANGE.
--exclude-range, -x RANGE
Do not show characters in RANGE.
--style, -t "STYLE: VAL"
Set STYLE to value VAL. Run fntsample with option --help to see list of styles and default values.
--help, -h
Display help text and exit.
Parameter RANGE for -i and -x can be given as one integer or a pair of integers delimited by minus sign (-). Integers can be specified in
decimal, hexadecimal (0x...) or octal (0...) format. One integer of a pair can be missing (-N can be used to specify all characters with
codes less or equal to N, and N- for all characters with codes greather or equal to N). Multiple -i and -x options can be used.
EXAMPLES
Make PDF samples for font.ttf and write them to file samples.pdf:
fntsample -f font.ttf -o samples.pdf
Make PDF samples for font.ttf, compare it with oldfont.ttf and highlight new glyphs. Write output to file samples.pdf:
fntsample -f font.ttf -d oldfont.ttf -o samples.pdf
Make PostScript samples for font.ttf and write output to file samples.ps. Show only glyphs for characters with codes less or equal to
U+04FF but exclude U+0370-U+03FF:
fntsample -f font.ttf -s -o samples.ps -i -0x04FF -x 0x0370-0x03FF
Make PDF samples for font.ttf and save output to file samples.pdf adding outlines to it:
fntsample -f font.ttf -o temp.pdf -l > outlines.txt
pdfoutline temp.pdf outlines.txt samples.pdf
