I upgraded to 7.4.5 last week on two systems from 7.4.3 - one on CentOS
4 32-bit, one on CentOS 5 64-bit.
The CentOS 4 system failed to complete a couple of savegrps properly,
which were still "running" this morning. When I checked, it appeared
that I had several nsrim processes running, from which "nsrck -X" was
called, but with a large list of clients that include several clients
recently deleted, and it appears to be hanging up on at least one of them.
When running "nsrim -X" manually, I can see that it generates a list of
clients, but based on some criteria I am not aware of.
The clients were removed after all their savesets expired. The savesets
do still exist on volumes, but they are all recyclable. it appears to be
basing the client list on these savesets though, as for each saveset
name it finds, I get this:
olddeletedclient:c:\, 0 browsable cycle(s)
0 browsable files of 149 total, 0 KB recoverable of 411 KB total
Where the totals differ but the 0s are constant.
For several of these old clients it skips them as
nsrck: File index error: `olddeletedclient' is not a registered client
as it should, but in this one case (at least, since it doesn't get
further), it sits forever. strace shows it in a loop of:
fcntl64(0, F_SETLK64, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=1},
0xbfff8c00) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, NULL, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
nanosleep({1, 0}, {1, 0})
I'm guessing that it still thinks this client should exist for some
reason, but I haven't figured out why...
Any ideas how I can clear this client once and for all?
