Bad syntax for the rule might do it. What rule were you using ?

Did nvUtil throw an error when it died ?
Does "die" mean exit or hung (never returns bad to the command prompt) ?

Of the bunch of nvUtils your script runs, how many of them does your script complete before the problem occurs ... can you pinpoint the problematic nvUtil call within your script and provide some details of its syntax (rule etc) ?

When you attempt the "nvUtil L" after your script completes, I'm assuming one of the nvUtil's from your script has already hosed things. Can you check to see if any nvUtils are still left running (ps -ef |grep nvUtil), kill them, then retry your "nvUtil L" test to see if that is all that is needed to resume normal operation (instead of restarting the daemons). If not, just recycle nvcold daemon and see if that frees things up.

[NV-L] nvUtil dying





What would cause nvUtil to die when all the daemons are up, based on ovstatus?  Is there a limit to how big a list can be , that is returned by nvUtil e?  I'm trying to debug this issue, and a bunch of nvUtil e's are issued for this script, and for unknown reasons, after this script runs, nvUtil L never returns and I have to stop all the daemons and restart them.  The code has not changed, at all, on the Netview servers, but I was thinking that the output of the nvUtil was too big and hitting some limit

Thanks in advance _______________________________________________
