1. Re: Netdisco Ping Sweep (Oliver Gorwits)
--- Begin Message ---
Hi Muris
Yeah, this is a known issue with the ping sweep right now, for large prefix
sweeps.
The ping sweep is not tidying up child processes. So I guess either you are
running out of process IDs (cannot fix(?)), or filehandles (can be
configured in the OS).
I'll have a look but I'm not sure how easy it is to fix. My recommendation
is to run the sweeps on smaller prefixes and spaced out in time, for now.
Kind regards
Oliver
