We found the issue with hung processes was due to code they had put in their .profile
export TERM=vt220 #export LANG= set -u trap "echo 'logout'" 0 trap "" 1 2 3 export PATH=$PATH:. trap 1 was removed - no longer get hung processes chewing up cpu -----Original Message----- From: Smith, Ann (ISD, IT) Sent: Friday, November 18, 2011 9:49 AM To: 'Linux on 390 Port' Subject: RE: Porting old application- numeric keypad Yes HOD was used with HPUX and will be used with linux on z. Now they tell me they had on HPUX and stiil have on z a problem with processes left by users not terminating out of HOD properly. Processes that are left apparently use quite a bit of cpu. They reworked a kill script they ran on HPUX so it can identify and kill such processes on SLES10. Have you heard of this with X'ing out or terminating HOD? At the same time as moving to linux on z they are moving users jobs to India and we will have this problem day and night. I've have started to get paged day and night when the cpu usage hits a limit due to these leftover processes. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Richard Troth Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2011 1:36 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Porting old application- numeric keypad You will want to find out if HOD was/is used when they run this against HP-UX system(s). It has been a while since I worked on this kind of thing. I was dismayed to find that most of the termcap/curses support is for *output*. For input, more of the heavy lifting gets dumped on the apps themselves. That aspect (how much of the input side does the library handle automagically) may vary between HP-UX and Linux. -- R; <>< Rick Troth Velocity Software http://www.velocitysoftware.com/ On Wed, Nov 16, 2011 at 11:34, Smith, Ann (ISD, IT) <ann.sm...@thehartford.com> wrote: > It is vt420f.
