1) analysis: this is what is going wrong w.r.t. nfs-utils during shutdown # the script S20sendsigs in /etc/rc0.d/ is run -> the call to killall5 -15 ... kills rpc.statd
# at the same time upstart tries to keep rpc.statd alive due to "respawn" in /etc/init/statd.conf -> rpc.statd is restarted These two conflicting actions repeat at least two times due to S20sendsigs containing multiple killall5 invocations. Maybe more often when upstart does all this in parallel. 2) possible solutions (I know too less to get this right myself, but post three suggestions) a) if rpc.statd is needed as long as S31umountnfs.sh has not yet been run then it should be protected from the killall5 like portmap is (/lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/portmap) b) if rpc.statd is no longer needed at that time it should get a statement like "stop on (stopping portmap or runlevel [06])" in /etc/init.statd.conf so that it is no longer present when S20sendsigs runs c) or, maybe, the respawn mechanism of upstart should be deactivated before running S20sendsigs ** Summary changed: - message at least two times during system shutdown: "statd main process ended" "respawning" + rpc.statd is killed and restarted during shutdown multiple times ** Description changed: + the following message appears during system shutdown at least two times: + "statd main process ended" "respawning" + this looks like some inconsistency in the upstart configuration of nfs- common ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Mon Nov 9 13:56:30 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx Package: nfs-common 1:1.2.0-2ubuntu8 ProcEnviron: - LANGUAGE= - PATH=(custom, user) - LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANGUAGE= + PATH=(custom, user) + LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-14.48-generic SourcePackage: nfs-utils Uname: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic i686 -- rpc.statd is killed and restarted during shutdown multiple times https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/479137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
