[Veritas-bu] Odd hangs on RHEL6 master

We are running a RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 master with 7.1.

We’ve been doing backups for a few days without much trouble.

Today I setup vaulting and kicked it off. It is mainly doing duplication from Data Domain and Quantum DXi deduplication units to LTO5.

Shortly after starting vaulting and duplication jobs I’m seeing odd things. For example the “ps –ef” (or any flags to ps) command will hang. The ps command by itself doesn’t. Eventually (after many minutes) the command will actually clear up. Many other commands (e.g. dg –h) work fine. It also appears the duplications are actually running.

As a test I stopped vaulting and deactivated the policy then killed the running duplicates. After doing that ps command with flags was working fine.

I then reactivated and restarted vaulting and a short while later saw the odd issue again.

Has anyone experienced something similar to this?
