Is there a daemon? I would kill/stop daemon instead of processes, so that they won’t respawn again.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Weber, Philip Sent: Tuesday, September 05, 2006 10:44 AM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] waiting....   Sort of related ... when I try to shut down NetBackup 5.1 there are almost invariably disk duplication jobs running.  If I kill these from the GUI they immediately spawn new jobs.  Even after bp.kill_all there are processes running because the duplication jobs have respawned ... is there a clean way to kill duplication?  Normally I have to kill the processes manually.   thanks, Phil -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 August 2006 02:19 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] waiting.... You can make this a lot cleaner by adding a pre-shutdown job that cancels all running backup jobs and waits for them to go away.  If there's no active jobs, the daemons drop pretty quick.  I wrote a utility called "nice_shutdown" that does this.   Kill -9 will stray tapes in drives and lead to all sorts of other happy problems.   -M   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Stump Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2006 5:49 AM To: Simon WEAVER; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] waiting.... The question is when I attempt to shutdown NetBackup I get 57 lines of: Waiting for active bpsched/bptm processes to terminate How can I tell which bpsched/bptm process that it is waiting on. How can I tell if the bpched/bptm process it is waiting on will eventually terminate via the shutdown.   It's kind of like the question "How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll pop"? no one knows. No one knows the answer to this question because we all get impatient and just start doing a mass kill -9 on any bpsched/bptm we see.   I am asking this to see if there may be a better way than # kill -9 `bpps | awk '{print $2}'`   The cleanup after the kill gets annoying and also is very time consuming. logging onto the ACSLS server and doing dismounts of the tapedrives. yuk...   >>> "WEAVER, Simon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 8/23/2006 1:36 AM >>> Bob not sure what you are after, but what about stopping all services / processes or rebooting perhaps??
