NS322 unresponsive

HI,
I am running NS322 with TimeMachine and fileservices through AFP and SMB/CIFS for a number of Macs.
Every couple of weeks the systems stops responding. First observation is Backups fail (or indicate as delayed). Cannot start Admin GUI. Server times out.
Today I managed to ssh to the system (with a lot patience). Every command takes many minutes to execute (if at all). ps command shows an endless number of mDNSResponderPosix processes:
8266 admin       564 S N /usr/sbin/mDNSResponderPosix -f /etc/config/mDNSRespo
8268 admin       564 S N /usr/sbin/mDNSResponderPosix -f /etc/config/mDNSRespo

8649 admin       580 R N /usr/sbin/mDNSResponderPosix -f /etc/config/timemachi
The harddisk indicators are pretty busy, so I hesitate to just power cycle.
Need help!

Hi Jason,
Thanks for the hints. I wish I could have rebooted from the command line, but the teminal window did not finish the ps command (because unresponsive) and it was somewhere close to number of 30k processes. Attempts to open another session did not succeed. Finally, after the disks became quiet, I did it the hard way with the power button on the system.
I am on firmware 1.3.0, I thought that is the latest. Will check for 1.4 (wow, released yesterday...).
I have seen other *nix systems running out of resources because the max number of processes was reached. Could be the case her and the cause of the system not responding. The question is why did this happen. The process showing up is related to Apple networking and there is a vague chance that using the TimeMachine feature while sending the clients to sleep it gets caught by not cleaning up stale processes/handles. Another factor may be that I access the same shares through AFP and SMB, but that is just a wild guess.
The logs do not show anything specific but I can verify that TimeMachine connected fine about every hour, then the client(s) went to sleep and the next day it obviously failed and retried every couple of minutes. The number of connects is much smaller than the number of processes observed, but that may be the nature of the connect process.
I do not expect the bug is fixed if it was not observed before, but I will try 1.4 firmware...

  • Galaxy Note II Unresponsive for minutes at a time

    I'm on my 3rd galaxy note 2.  My first one had an overheating problem that caused the battery to last for 2 hours even though it was idle.  They ended up replacing it for me.  My 2nd one was actually perfect.  I had zero problems with it for nearly a year until the day after the 4.3 update, the screen went off and never came back on.  I just got my replacement about a week ago and I'm having an issue with the screen becoming unresponsive for minutes at a time.
    I factory reset the phone yesterday thinking that maybe I had a rogue app installed but it seems that any time I try to launch a game or if I try to browse the internet while an app is updating, the phone is unusable for a few minutes.  It's like it can't multitask. Eventually it'll come back with the phone at my home screen with my background image gone, but eventually it comes back too. It's similar to when windows explorer crashes and it reloads. I'll go through the same process for 2 or 3 more times before the game finally launches or the internet browser is finally usable.
    Before I call this phone defective, I was wondering if it's a problem related to 4.3 that I should be aware of?  I installed a monitor and it looks like with no apps open, from a fresh reboot my ram is 50-80% used which doesn't leave much room for opening apps or playing games.  I even installed a virus protection and scanned for a virus (i know viruses on smartphones is a stretch) and it returned no issues.
    Any ideas?  I could factory reset it again, but I just did that last night and it didn't help still having the same problem with very minimal apps reinstalled.  One note, I factory reset it with the restore from backup functionality turned off, so the apps I did install were from scratch, not my google account.

    I decided to call in.  I tell the rep my problems and he tells me to launch the phone in safe mode. Done. I could reproduce the issue. It then says wifi unstable.  The phone freezes with wifi on. Tells me to turn the wifi off. No more freezing while in safe mode, I guess wifi is the problem didn't think that was an issue before. He tells me that wifi issues have been reported but none of those issues cause the phone to freeze, he said that samsung told them to tell customers to turn that feature (ie: wifi) off until the next software update. He said samsung is working on a fix for the wifi issues but said there's no eta. I asked him for his gut feel and he said phones that are newer than 18 months normally get priority, given that the note 2 was release in november of 2012 and we're in 2014, that he estimated 3-4 months for the next update. I know I can't hold him to that but even if he's right, I have to leave wifi off for 3-4 months?...Now to the best part, "Since there is no freezing with wifi off in safe mode, and in safe mode the phone behaves in the state samsung designed it to be in, I've determined that it's not a hardware or operating system issue, so there's nothing I can do for you. I'm sorry I couldn't send you a new phone or resolve this problem for you, I hope you find a solution for the software issue you're having, good night."
    Rather than get mad I realized I wouldn't get anywhere with him so I didn't try to push the issue. I know I have unlimited data so it's not that big of deal, but wouldn't you consider the phone not working regularly with wifi turned on a hardware or os system problem?  It's not like I can uninstall and reinstall wifi.  The drivers are embedded in the system and since it's a refurb phone, who's to say that the parts that were refurbed are really factory oem?
    Now I'm stuck with a phone that is unusable randomly for 3-5 minutes using the phone normally with the mobile network/wifi because the agent didn't consider the problem to be hardware or os related and the only way to keep it from having issues is to not turn on wifi and keep the phone in factory default settings.
    I'm not going to threaten to leave or go somewhere else because it would serve no purpose, maybe that's why there was no attempt made to help me other than saying no from the beginning of the conversation, but in my 15 years of being a loyal customer, you would think "i hope you find a solution on your own" would be after sending me a new device if the problem persisted. 

  • Usb 6501 unresponsive causing BSOD(Blue Screen Error)

    There are a lot posts about the same issue but mine is a little peculiar so i decided to post it.
    I am using two usb DAQ in the same pc(usb-6501, usb-6001), connected to the usb port on the back. The usb-6501 is used to obtain digital inputs from read switches, Sensors through an ssr. The usb-6001 is used to control 2 double valve solenoid, 1 dc motor, 2 indicator lamps. usb-6001 is also used to read analog values of current(using hall effect sensor) and voltage(using potentiometer).
    At first i was facing problems with the usb-6001(the usb-6501 was working fine at this point) resetting during operation accompanied by BSOD. Then i learned it was due to my relay, which requires 30 mA of current to switch so i used the ULN2003a to interface the usb-6001 with the relays and after that the application was running perfectly for 4 days.
    Now the usb-6501 is having the same problem and when i perform "Self Test" from NI MAX it shows "Error Code:50405" and i am able to reset the device from NI MAX only sometimes, other times i would have to unplug the USB device then plug it back in. As the application is used for an automated test rig the customer is frustrated by this problem. Once the card becomes unresponsive(or after the card is reset) BSOD occours.
    I have checked all the device drivers and OS for any errors but they are fine. i have even tried changing the ram to solve the BSOD with no use.
    System Details:
    Windows 7 SP1
    NI MAX 14.0
    power saving is disabled 
    I have attached the latest mini dump files as they might help in finding out the reason behind this problem(File extensions changed for the purpouse of uploading).
    I need to know: Is there any permanent solution for this problem? and what is the reason for this problem.

  • Totally unresponsive and unrecognized by iTunes brand new iPod Touch 3rd gen

    Within less than 24 hrs of setting up brand new 3rd gen iPod touch it is totally unresponsive. While using it, the screen went black, felt a little warmer than normal, and now won't do anything. I've tried resetting by pressing on/off and home buttons. Tried this even after plugging in to computer for 20+ min and still nothing. iTunes no longer recognizes it, so I cannot restore it. I am just stuck with a black screen with absolutely no response. I'm at a loss on what to do next or what might be wrong.  Have been all over this site for a solution, but just can't seem to find one that helps me.  Apple Stores are 3 hrs away from where I live. Very careful with the device, not dropped, not wet, just simply using it.  Any help greatly appreciated... my son is devistated.

    See if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore via iTunes.
    Next would be an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Keyboard and trackpad freeze and randomly become unresponsive

    I've got a MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011) running Mac OS X 10.8.2.
    Since a few weeks ago at random intervals my keyboard and trackpad become permanently unresponsive. I don't recall any particular cause or change that would have caused this to start happening.
    What happens is that the trackpad and keyboard will stop functioning completely. The computer, display etc. would continue to function properly:
    The clock keeps ticking.
    If music were playing it would continue etc.
    Internet connectivity (via an ethernet cable or WiFi) continues to work as well (a download will continue, and even resume if I disconnect and reconnect the ethernet cable).
    Presssing the power button will bring up the shutdown dialog as usual (but I can't use it, obviously, so a forced shutdown needs to be performed instead by holding down the power button longer).
    .. but the keyboard and trackpad are rendered inoperable, as if they were no longer connected.
    I've made no progress in finding out what could possibly be the cause of this. A few observations:
    It has never happened while not using the keyboard (e.g. watch a DVD with TV series for a few hours, and afterwards the keyboard would always be fine).
    It always happens while actively typing (e.g. while in the middle of replying to an e-mail).
    It is not a temporary problem, the keyboard and trackpad will not become responsive again after some time (the computer isn't particulary occupied with calculating something big, no beachball and no busy mechanical noises).
    It does not happen progessively. It works fine and snappy one second, and I'm touching a dead keyboard a split second later.
    I tried connecting a USB keyboard but that doesn't seem to work either (I'm mentioning this since some of the linked threads below close with that as a solution).
    Possibly related (although I haven't found anything in these threads):
    Keyboard causes trackpad to not function properly
    Keyboard and trackpack freeze
    Keyboard and Trackpad Unresponsive
    MacBook Pro Keyboard & TrackPad freeze! Totally Unresponsive!
    MacBook Pro inbuilt Keyboard and Trackpad freeze when not connected to bluetooth devices?
    I've crawled through some log files in /var/log (via the shell and through Console.app) and found a couple things that may be relevant, although they seem unrelated. Etiher way, I was surprised by what I found. All sorts of errors with regards to Bluetooth and USB stuff. I'm not aware of using either. I haven't used bluetooth in years and though I sometimes charge an iPod by USB, I haven't had any problems with that, and this keyboard/trackpad freeze has also happened on sessions where I started the laptop and never even touch the USB ports in the time leading up to the freeze.
    Sample log from when it happened. It last happened at 21:04:xx:

  • New T530 with dead / unresponsi​ve pixel in upper middle of screen

    I have one dead or unresponsive pixel in the upper middle part of the screen. It is stuck in red color. It is very difficult to ignore  this red dot and it is very annoying to use my machine with this red dot on the screen. What can I do? 
    I ordered my T530 on July 27th and received it on Aug 20th. I've used it for two days and used UDpixel or similar online tools in attempt to unstuck this red pixel. The pixel is still stuck in red. What can I do about this? Need help. I need to use my  laptop for school. 
    Thanks.

  • My BetterPrivacy addon now Freezes firefox, causing a "Script: chrome//bp/content/bp.js:847" unresponsive notification. I'm still running Ff 3.6, and want to keep BetterPrivacy, but I have to disable it now. It worked just fine until recently.

    I have to click on "Stop unresponsive script" to get Firefox to load, and then have to disable BetterPrivacy in order to use Ff normally. I haven't changed Ff or BetterPrivacy lately, to the best of my knowledge, but I can't use the BP add-on any longer.
    Just in case, I also deleted my Chrome browser, which I had as a stand-by, but it didn't help. I still get "A script on this page is unresponsive: Script: chrome//bp/content/bp.js:847". Any ideas?
    I'm not certain which version of BP I had when this problem started, but today I tried adding the latest version, 1.49, but still had same trouble.
    Your "educated guess" is correct - Ff 3.616 and Vista.

    I turned off the accelrator months ago. That was the first thing I did. It helped some. The problem is getting progressively worse, so it seems like every upgrade in the past 3-4 months is causing the problem.

  • Touch Screen unresponsive after iOS 8 update

    My 1 year old 64GB iPhone 5 touch screen started to become unresponsive after iOS 8 update
    It's not consistent. Touch screen functionality will seize whilst phone is being used for either answering calls, typing messges, surfing, gaming etc and won't become responsive until it is turned off and on again (via power button). Home button is functioning with no problems.
    As the phone is now out of its warranty period I want to verify if it's the OS that's causing this or do I actually have a hardware issue.

    I have the same issue. iPhone 5, 1 year-old, not even a scratch.
    Sometimes my touch screen works, sometimes not. When it works, it is just for some seconds, then some phantom touches start to happen all over the screen, but specially, when i'm typing, it types z or m, when I try to type something in, and it receives it, it will act as z or m again....
    If I switch off my screen and switch on again... sometimes it will work, sometimes it wont... veeery unstable.
    I considered downgrading to 7.1.2 but since I heard it is ilegal I decided to wait for a new iOS release.... any suggestions? (already wiped it and the issue continued...)
    Is it really not recommended to downgrade it and have my phone funcionalities back?

  • HP envy Trackpad unresponsi​ve and glitchy.

    I have had this laptop for about 6 months now and the bug began almost a month after I bought my device. 
    I didn't think it was as important of an error initially because I tend to carry a mouse with me ususally.
    Now it has rendered my device unusable when I don't carry a mouse (which is really annoying).
    I really don't know what to do to fix this issue.
    Please help.
    Cheers.

  • Keyboard/trackpad Unresponsive during Windows 7 Install

    I have spent days scouring online forums troubleshooting issues that have arisen at virtually every step of the process. There seems to be a whole slew of issues people are having in addition to my own.
    I had to try many workarounds to resolve the issue where Boot Camp 5 gets confused over whether you are installing the 32 or 64 bit version. Really dumb stuff... that should never have released in such a disjointed state.
    You shouldn't have to hack such massively mainstream products just to get them to work. I have a job! But installing Microsoft apps is a full-time job itself. Are they out to lunch? Did Apple completely shut down? From what I'm reading they appear completely disengaged from their products. Tons of threads over tasks that should be simple. The slightest variation derails the installation process. It various from mac machine models, right side usb ports vs left side ports. This is a very expensive and time consuming joke being played on us consumers.
    I am now CURRENTLY stuck.....
    I have a new MacBook Pro 15" retina. I finally ran Boot Camp successfully and I downloaded the Apple Support Software although its location is a mystery. I get stuck at the very first installation window (Windows 7 Premium) asking to select the language. My keyboard and trackpad are unresponsive. I am NOT talking about wireless devices which is an issue flooding other threads.
    I have to hold down the power button to get out of it. And after a couple of attempts the entire 5-hour long Boot Camp installation get undone and my Windows designated partition returns to being empty. Is there no pride in their work? Why burden their customers with their problems? Is their only demographic mac geniuses?
    I have Windows 7 on dvd which I put on a thumb drive after learning how to convert it to an ISO image, a step MS is apparently too lazy to do.  It took only an hour to do but a full day do discover what the problem was.
    None of this would even be an issue if I didn't need Windows. Apple used to be able to run anything on its own. What happened?

    Hi Craig,
    Apple advice is to use USB-connected keyboard and mouse during installation of Windows.
    +"The drivers for your wireless mouse and keyboard are not installed yet, so you cannot use them. The use of a wired mouse and keyboard is required to install Windows. Once your installation is complete, you can install the Apple Windows drivers off your Mac OS X DVD. Then, pair the wireless mouse and keyboard to your system using the Bluetooth Control Panel."+
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3777
    Any PC- or Apple- USB keyboard/mouse should work.
    If you don't have such try to borrow from a friend or colleague.

  • Macbook Air Trackpad And Keyboard Unresponsive!! PLEASE HELP!

    Hello everyone, a while ago (about 2 months) my Macbook air started having troubles with its trackpack and keyboard. At random times they would become unresponsive and just stop working. They would work for like 1 second when the computer turns on but then it would stop. A couple weeks ago the problem stopped occuring the keyboard and trackpad were working fine and dandy. Of course until last night, I open the computer and the trackpad and keyboard won't work.. The keyboard lights are on and the power button works but nothing else does it is extremely frustrating! I did an SMC reset which worked for like 5 minutes until it stopped working again. I have done a NVRAM reset nothing, I have done everything that I have seen but I need a fix for this! The mac is running OS X 10.9.3 and I am pretty sure that is the latest. Please help me guys I am really getting frustrated with this undying problem ;/

    you don't need to disassemble your device.
    4 days is a lot.
    maybe rust has already been created.
    cross fingers.

  • Macbook Air mid-2013 trackpad unresponsive after sleep

    This started happening after updating to Mavericks. My trackpad sporadically alternates between working and not - any suggestions? When not working it is entirely unresponsive - no movement or clicking. 've tried restarting and resetting the SMC so far, but am wondering if others have suggestions before I head to the apple store.
    Thanks,
    Rus

    I have the same issue. Is there still no fix for it? My MBA 2010 freezes about 10s after wake up, i have the feeling it depends on the sleeping time before.
    Hope for some help.

  • Mid 2010 Unresponsive

    MacBook Pro Mid 2010 (MacBookPro 6.2)
    2.53 GHz Intel Core i5
    4 GB 1067 MHz DDR 3
    OS X 10.8.5 Mountain Lion
    Hitachi 500 GB SATA.
    This machine has worked flawlessly for years. I have about 60GB of data on the drive and backup regularly. Suddenly it has become very slow and almost unresponsive. I scanned with both  Sophos and ClamXav and found no virus
    Booting takes 1:10 from power on until logon screen and another 50 sec from password initialization to wallpaper and icons. Some applications will not open at all.
    I would rather not spend $2,000.00 to get a new MacBookPro and I use this machine for business so I need it to be responsive.
    Questions:
    Is the memory failing?
    Is the Hard drive becoming unresponsive?
    If I replace the hard drive or upgrade the machine how do I restore my data (I use time machine) AND upgrade the operating system from Mountain Lion?

    Remove the Sophos product by following the instructions on this page. That alone may be enough to solve your problem. If you have a different version, the procedure may be different.
    Back up all data before making any changes.

  • MBP mid 2009 sudden HDD issues / slow and unresponsive

    Hello all,
    First of all i want to apologize if there was a similar topic, but ive tried looking with no result. I am in a big crisis and i think this forum is my only way of finding a solution.
    The problem started yesterday, when all of a sudden my computer became unresponsive (finder and apps), although music from itunes continued playing. I had no choice but to **** it down with the button.
    When i turned it back on, i got the blinking folder with the question mark. Tried all the advice with no success. Then i opened the computer, checked the flex cable and the hdd which both seemed fine. Closed it back up, started it up again and the same story. Then i moved the computer after half an hour and the thing booted normally. The only obvious thing was that programs tended to freeze for a minute or two and i get the umbrella and then it works.
    Since im a photographer i have lots of work on it and immediately bought an external hdd for backup. Time machine wasnt successful since it worked so slowly and it worked on intervals. 2 mins of copying, 5 mins of nothing and really slow ( the hdd graph in activity monitor showed continious spikes with a flat line inbetween. I gave up on that and now im copying the important stuff manually which seems to be working fine.
    However the computer still has a big issue - i am hoping its the flex cable, since it suddey started working. In case of hdd failure i dont think i would be able to get back in and use it? The hdd is a year old, its the seagate hybrid - momentus 750xt and the os is mountain lion.
    Does anyone have a clue or a tip what to do? I have to order the flex cable via ebay since there are no authorised deLers for apple that have spare parts available here in Lisbon, Portugal. Im afraid making a clean install wont help , although on a windows computer id do that the first thing..
    Thanks a lot for any help, im desperate and i have a few weddings to edit this month, and since i study abroud this is the only xomputer i can use!
    Regards, Jaka

    It does seem to be the internal cable or connection is faulty, but only on an intermittent basis. 
    My suggestion is to backup your data on an external HDD using Disk Utility>Restore or Carbon Copy Cloner.  This will create a drive that will enable you to boot your MBP and use it externally until you get your cable replaced.
    Ciao.
