Hello, I've noticed a problem restarting some of swift services, and I don't know if it's related to a local configuration or a more general problem.
Basically when I try to restart swift-object-server and the service is busy (you can see the Send-Q has data according to netstat), it stops but the port can't be used because there are sockets with FIN_WAIT1 state. The process is gone, but the kernel is stuck after sending the notice to the remote machine, and doesn't seem to clean the states. I've found a couple of possible solutions: - Set net.ipv4.tcp_orphan_retries to 1 (default seems to be 0 in Squeeze, and seems that it's the reason the orphans are there for ever) - Use a tool like tcpkill Actually I was wondering if there's a "cleaner" way of stopping the process without leaving the send queue full.
