Re: 20010418: LDM installation at CCNY (cont.)

Hiya,

Anne asked if I would look at halo in her absence.  Here's what I found
last week:

- CCNY is running an older version of the LDM, before the new queue
structure.

- The machine hangs because it is trying to receive "too" much data with
the current configuration.

- Actual abnormal LDM exits occurred when:

        -  pqexpire is running and pbuf_flush messages are being emitted
                ( there must be some contention when pqexpire is trying to 
                delete products and pqact is writing products, could it
                possibly be the same product? )

        - pbuf_flush messages and RE-CLASS messages are being emitted.
                ( contention between pqact and the receiver process)


These are speculations of course, but if halo could run the new version of
the LDM, then the first action would be eliminated and possibly the second
one too.  


This was the information was derived from the logs, I thought I saved the
actual logs but I didn't. The only log information is short excert from
after a RE-CLASS message where the LDM exits, I'll attach it.

There were many pbuf_flush messages and RE-CLASS messages in the logs.  It
appears a slow disk problem and a narrow pipe problem exists,  maybe the
configurations need to be changed.
