I don't know how those master processes have started up like that. Here's what the process tree should look like: ps -ef | grep master: puppet 3113 3052 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 master puppet 3145 1 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 Rack: /usr/share/puppet/rack/puppetmasterd See how 'master' is *not* owned by the init process? So, what owns it? A succession of 'ps -fp <pid>' runs (taking the PPID of each process) shows: puppet 3113 3052 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 master root 3052 3050 1 15:16 ? 00:00:04 Passenger spawn server root 3050 3046 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 PassengerHelperAgent root 3046 3045 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 PassengerWatchdog root 3045 1 0 15:16 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/httpd In answer to your question of how to get rid of those processes, I'd start by stopping httpd. If that doesn't get rid of them, then just use `kill' on them. Regards, Matt. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
