| Subject: (7.55) Why are multiple innwatch's running? |
|---|
From: Jim Dutton <jimd@dutton4.it.siu.edu> Currently, "nobody" seems to verify whether an innwatch task is already executing before innwatch is started up in rc.news. Also, when innd is terminated via ctlinnd shutdown, innwatch is not affected (eg; it is left running). Since rc.news always starts an innwatch task, if innd is shutdown for maintenance, it is necessary to remember to ALSO kill the innwatch task and its attendant "sleeper" task, thus ensuring that there is no innwatch running when rc.news is executed to restart innd (assuming that this is how innd is restarted, of course). ------------------------------ [Last Changed: $Date: 1997/09/16 01:25:57 $ $Revision: 2.25 $] [Copyright: 1997 Heiko Rupp, portions by Tom Limoncelli, Rich Salz, et al.] |
