vsh is high - cpu utilization
Hi,

I am working on a solaris app processor and the vsh goes high from time to time. I have executed various ps commands and switches and have found that it looks like the rlogind daemon is terminating vsh and not cleaning up after itself. There are also something like 10 zombies hanging around too.

Does this sound plausible?

This is an old app processor so im wondering if inetd.conf has anything to do with it?

Could it be a cron job thats causing vsh to go high?

Thank you Smilie

Dangling vsh processes come from users connecting with VanDyke and not exiting with esc, just killing the local PC window to log off.

Whatever key is set as the the 'esc' key will terminate the rlogin session correctly.
Vshell has ~. for disconnect. You may want to check vsh options in case users are forcibly trying to reconnect.
