Re: 'Runaway' Nodemgr

Bob, and others,
Forte is now putting together a profile as the pieces are filtering in from
other
areas (thanks Bob and Peggy). Sandra and I are working together along
with Engineering to better understand this problem and working towards
identifying the cause and a resolution.
It is still very early days as we don't have very much hard evidence to go
on but we are building up a profile from other sources. At the moment
we have another reported case from a customer who appears to be having
the same type of problem. They are also running Forte 3J1 and Solaris
2.6.
After discussing this internally we have had similar problems reported on
Solaris 2.6 with Forte 3.0.G.2 but since this was not a supported or tested
combination, we could not pursue the problem at that time.
It is significant that all the information I have at the moment, is that this
only
appears to happen on Solaris 2.6. Having said that it reinforces the need
to have appropriate Solaris skills on-site and available when the test is
performed in order to get first hand information that Forte may not know
to request or be aware of.
Another suggestion would be to reconfigure the Solaris Kernel so that the
maximum per process memory allocation is set to the lowest minimum value
that allows your system to continue to run properly but alleviates the
possibility
that the memory allocated to the process goes in excess of 2GB and then
causes problems with swap space shortage, core dump file size and possible
CPU cycles in dealing with this Extreme condition.
Please let me know if you will be able to impliment these suggestions in time
for the test on Friday.
Regards,
Alain...

(inconsistently) when we stressed tested by having 8-12 people start their
Launcher Distributed icons at the same time. Forte gave us some unix
statistic grabbers (and an escript dumpstatus) for the next time we can
duplicate the problem.

limits on the shell of the user which runs the nodemanager.
I have set the maximal available virtual memory to 256M. Since then we had
no operating system crashes caused by Forte. (our machine has about 2G of
virtual memory)
Sometimes (we made no researches in the subject yet) we have processes,
which allocate all the possible memory (but no more than allowed, to be
killed by the OS). We kill them manually now, if encountered. They also
occupy all the cycles of one processor.
The processes are always service objects running on the server node.
Hope this helps.

How to kill Forms Runaway Process using 95% CPU and running for 2 hours.

We had a situation at E-Business Suite customer (using Oracle VM server) where some of Form processes were not being cleared by form timeout settings automatically.
Also when user exits the form session from front end, the linux form process (PID) and DB session did not exit properly, so they got hung.
They were spiking CPU and memory usage and causing e-business suite to perform slowely and ultimately causing VM host to reboot the production VM guest (running on Linux).
We could see the form processes (PIDs) using almost 100% cpu with "top" command and running for a long time.
Also we verified those Form Sessions did not exist in the application itself.
ie. Using from Grid Control -> OAM-> Site Map -> Monitoring (tab) -> "Form Sessions".
It means that we could safely kill that form process from Linux using "kill -9 <PID>" command.
But that required a continuous monitoring and manual DBA intervention as customer is 24x7 customer.
So, I wrote a shell script to do the following;
•     Cron job runs every half an hour 7 days a week which calls this shell script.
•     Shell script runs and tries to find "top two" f60webmx processes (form sessions) using over 95% cpu with 2 minutes interval.
•     If no process is found or CPU% is less than 95%, it exits and does nothing.
•     If top process is found, it searches for its DB session using apps login (with hidden apps password file - /home/applmgr/.pwd).
a.     If DB session is NOT found (which means form process is hung), it kills the process from unix and emails results to <[email protected]>
b.     If DB session is found, it waits for 2 hours so that form process times automatically via form session timeout setting.
It also emails the SQL to check the DB session for that form process.
c.     If DB session is found and it does not timeout after 2 hours,
it kills the process from unix (which in turn kills the DB session). Output is emailed.
This are the files required for this;
1. Cron job which calls the shell script looks like this;
# Kill form runaway process, using over 95% cpu having no DB session or DB session for > 2hrs
00,30 * * * * /home/applmgr/forms_runaway.sh 2>&1
2. SQL that this script calls is /home/applmgr/frm_runaway.sql and looks like;
set head off
set verify off
set feedback off
set pagesize 0
define form_client_PID = &1
select count(*) from v$session s , v$process p, FND_FORM_SESSIONS_V f where S.AUDSID=f.audsid and p.addr=s.paddr and s.process='&form_client_PID';
3. Actual shell script is /home/applmgr/forms_runaway.sh and looks like;

If you have the same problem with some other unix and DB processes, the script can be easily modified and used.
But use this with thorough testing first (by commenting out <kill -9 $PID1> lines.
Good luck.

Indeed I'm using Powerpoint to make a presentation, syslogd runaway multiple times a day (~dozen) since i started making my presentation.
syslogd never gave me problem when I was doing other stuff. Previous use of Powerpoint didn't produced that syslogd runaway so I'm guessing it comes from either the last 10.5.4 Leopard upgrade or Microsoft Office 2004 upgrade.
-Activity Monitor / Quiting process doesn't work, just stop it temporarily and it comes back
Any suggestion to stop my Macbook pro getting so hot?
P.S. There could be similar post but the since the search is desactivated i couldn't find them

Update:
I went to the Apple Store and talked to a Genius. Long story short, I was told that they have been seeing this issue allot since the release of Leopard. A "simple" archive/install was recommended to correct the problem. No explanation. A Terminal command to kill the offending process was also not offered when I asked (nothing I have tried works via this route). Hey, Apple, are you taking note of this?!
Of course, an archive/install is not as simple as it should be, especially when you only have the Mac OS X 10.5 upgrade disk. I have had to make a clone of my hard drive, reformat it, reinstall Tiger, update, reinstall Leopard, update, then move my data over via Migration Assistant. I hit a snag at that point ( see this post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1286935&tstart=0 ). For what it is worth, I still have the Syslogd issue while booted up into my Leopard clone volume. More information as I progress...

10.6 -- All Office 2008 apps hang at splash screen. FontCache Tool runaway

Did an upgrade of 10.5 to 10.6. Nearly everything works fine. Can't launch Office 2008. All apps hang at their splash screen; usually at Optimizing Font Menu Performance.
Once an app is opened, in Activity viewer you'll find a process called FontCache Tool using >90% of the CPU (on my Core Duo MBP at least, YMMV). I suppose it's saying a lot about 10.6 that the computer is completely usable with that runaway process. Even after forcing the office app(s) to quit, Font Cache Tool stays running until it's killed manually.
I have yet to find out if FontCache Tool is an Apple or MS process. I think it's microsoft.
This happens under multiple users.
This happens after reinstalling Office.
This was an Office 2008 upgrade from Office 2004.
After reinstall, and installing Rosetta, office 2004 will run, but office 2008 will not.
Office 2008 is 12.2.1.
I am running FontAgent Pro for font management, and so font book sees certain activated fonts as duplicates. (Validate fonts shows duplicate warnings but no errors). FontAgent Pro 4.0.3 is listed as Snow Leopard compatible. So is Office 2008.
I have yet to do a clean SL install, which I'm guessing will fix it, but I'm curious if there is a sub-sledgehammer approach, or if I am the only person with this issue.
Other probably irrelevant facts include that the computer is bound to both Active Directory and OS X OpenDirectory servers. Open Directory is running on Leopard 10.5 Server. It does have some managed preferences, including those for Office (e.g. to set default to .doc rather than .docx) but the situation persists even after removing those managed preferences.
Normally really specific problems are easy to isolate and solve, but I'm at a loss.
Any help appreciated
keppie

Hey i think i figured it out.
Had the same prob. 10.6 12.2.1 entourage hanging.
Renamed FCT, instantly prompted that a font was corrupt. Removed the corrupt Font: KufiStandardGK.ttf << this just happened to be my one corrupt font.
A little troubleshooting i did leading up to this, I read your post and my situation was the same. I use Linotype X to manage fonts. I disabled all but the minimum fonts (i moved them into a folder font_trouble in the same folder)
I also deleted every office pref/plist setting i thought relevant to startup which triggered the microsoft setup assistant (watched via the console app) and it ran through its check and then immediately the fontcachetool started and went awol on cpu time. Once i killed it--during the starting up of word and entourage... timing may be unrelated but i did them at nearly the same time.
Ps. Your post was extremely well written and I apologize for my stream of consciousness, less than stelllar response... hope this helps if not feel free to ping me for more details on what I did...
Good Luck.. All my office apps are running normally now.

Dashboard causes runaway swap

Opening a Dashboard widget causes runaway swap, eventually eating all of the free disk space.
I started the Activity Monitor after having problems and rebooting. I ran Mail, Safari, Google Earth, Numbers, and other apps without a problem. Swap wasn't even touched (I have 8GB of RAM). As soon as I used the Dashboard Dictionary widget it started using swap and things got really ugly for response time. As I let it idle, swap would grow a bunch, then some would be given back. If I used an app, such as Mail or Safari, swap would really start to grow, and less would be given back, and esponse time would also deteriorate further.

Actually, I just realized I probably don't mean "when I open Dashboard", but instead "when I open my Widgets"? Not a power user as may now be obvious.....
Opening the Dashboard is the correct syntax - the Dashboard displays widgets.
By chance have you used the "Open in Dashboard" item in Safari's File menu to create a widget showing part of a webpage?
If so, others have reported that same effect - that after having used that function, opening the Dashboard will cause Safari to open one or more windows, even starting up Safari to do so if it is not running.
One solution is to get rid of that widget. Easy way - open the Dashboard; hold down Option and hover the cursor over the widget. A bold X icon will appear on the upper left corner of the widget - click that X.

If no rows are selected it means that there is no database server process which is serving the present forms process and thus we confirm that it is a runaway.

As per above update the forms runaway process has opened two database sessions 428 and 445. And we should always ignore the SID which has prog_module column as FNDSCSGN (here 428). Look for other sessions which are having status as INACTIVE. If they are INACTIVE for more than 8hrs (time can be conifirmed from callet/3600 column). If session is inactive for more than 8hrs , then you can kill the both sessions and and f60webmx process.

2) Set the forms applet heartBeat parameter:
In the base html file, insert a new parameter called heartBeat. This parameter sets the frequency at which a client sends a packet to the server to indicate that it is still running. The default value is two minutes. Set this parameter value to greater than the value specified for the FORMS60_TIMEOUT variable, in this case 7 minutes is recommended:

Safari runaway heating followed by beachball; force quit necessary

Safari 3.2.1 has become unusable for me as of today. A few minutes after I launch it, I hear the fans start to rev up, and I can see the temperature climbing. Quit doesn't work, only force quit. Knowing how my MacBook Pro is subject to runaway heating every so often (anyone have an idea why?), I am sure that if I didn't hurry to force quit at 80 deg C, it would keep on climbing to 110 before causing a shutdown of the system. It started as a problem with one particular site, but now it doesn't matter where I am. I tried reinstalling Safari, but it had no effect. Am I the only one to have enountered this?

I can confirm having exactly the same problem, which also started on March 30th.
I've done a 'Safari reset" for all the reset-items except for usernames+passwords and for autofill. It doesn't make any difference. Even if I only start Safari without accessing any sites (I have my Safari-homepage defined as None) then after about a minute Safari (vs 3.2.1) starts cannibalizing on CPU-time (as shown by the Activity Monitor utility), shooting up to 90-100% - and staying there! This renders Safari completely useless, as it blocks out other apps from using any meaningful part of total cpu-time. The only way to stop this is to kill Safari using Quit Process in the Activity Monitor. Firefox and Opera, which I both have also installed, do not show any similar problem whatsoever and operate completely normal. I have not installed any new software before this weird Safari behaviour started and Software Update reports that all my software is up to date (OSX 10.5.6). Something is somehow dead wrong within Safari.

[NODEMGR} Adding a 'business role' to a nodemgrprocess

Hi,
when tuning my nodemgr, I can declare it as DB enabled (DBResourceMgrs),
or supporting some 3GL libraries and so on.
What can I declare on that node to force some partitions to go there ?
(I fear that declaring a 3GL Library would do a compile/link error as it's
virtual)

Hi Spencer,
as you probably heard here and ther the SAP Solution Manager supports the whole lifecycle of a business process. Hence there are especially two logical parts
a) the project and business blueprint part which you access with your mentioned transactions SOLAR01/02
b) the operations part where you have a similar but nevertheless separate directory the so called Solution Directory that you can access via DSWP > Solution Landscape > Solution Landscape Maintenance or via the "Business Process Operations" Work Center.
In both directories you can maintain business processes from scratch or use the Business Process Repository or another Project or another Solution as source.
What you require for using Business Process Monitoring is that business processes are maintained in the Solution Directory. If so far you processes are only maintained in SOLAR01/02 then you can copy them into the Solution Directory.
You should find corresponding iTutors under http://service.sap.com/rkt-solman
You can also have a look into http://service.sap.com/bpm > Media Library > Technical Information for different technical papers explaining on how to setup BPMon.
Perhaps you also want to visit the FAQ page http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQBusinessProcess+Monitoring

Syslogd[19824] error in Console--runaway script?

After finding out that asl data was taking up an incredible amount of room on my drive, I did this. Large asl files dated back from as late as 2009. It did help clear up some of the asl data but did not stop the files from being created faster than before (and at large file sizes). I went to the console to see what was going on and I kept getting this error message:
"syslogd(19924,0xb0185000) malloc: *** mmap(size=2097152) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region"
What does this mean? Is this some sort of runaway script that is creating all of those asl files that are seriously slowing down my computer (and making all of my programs freeze)? What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Marc ,
Thanks for your reply.....
Did you mentioning the script (upgrade_10131_
10133_oracle.sql) in the orabpel. I had run this script after applying the patch.
Still iam facing the same issue.
what need to be done?
Could you please help me on this, because I need to do the Fault Handling Framework in BPEL and so i need the faultpolicy folder to be present.
Since I got the folder by applying the patch, but what happend is when i try to check out for the activity status in the BPEL Console Activity tab it is showing the error as mentioned earlier. Any problem with patch implementation or any bug is there. So far i done the patch installation successfully without error and i upgraded the orabpel schema using the mentioned script also. Any other things i need to do?
Regards,
Ashok.

Runaway PubSubAgent & Safari Webpage Preview Fetcher

Hi-- I'm on 10.6.2 still (well, again, because 10.6.3 killed my Pro Tools system), and PubSubAgent regularly starts to runaway with ~97% of my processor. I kill it with Activity Monitor & all's well again for a while, until it decides it's the most important thing on my computer again a few hours later.
I gather this is a part of Mail, related to RSS feeds? Does anyone have a suggestion for how I can calm it down?
I also get this same problem with the Safari Webpage Preview Fetcher sometimes, though less often.
thanks

A quick look in our database and I THINK I found the answer for you.
I found a previous case where under rare circumstances an XML would become corrupted and solution was to run a script.
I'm actually not sure if I'm supposed to provide you with the script (there's always quite a few concerns with this), but I'm going to risk it.
However you can only run the script at your own risk and if it goes wrong please reimage the device.
Regarding CM and how devices are recongnized, forgive my inoreance but I believe it was in part mac address (or something else imprinted into device) of device, but can't remember for sure, nor have the time to look for it.
HTH,
Marcin

Isolating and Killing Runaway Processes

How does one go about isolating and kiling a runaway PL/SQL process? I decided that it would be fun to call a
procedure within a package that had an improperly coded loop, coded by yours truly. I called they package and
then noticed that it seemed to be taking too long. Upon reviewing the code, I noticed that I my program was
now stuck in an infinite loop. Since this process had run off on its own, I tried to complie it to fix the problem and
much to my dismay I could not even complie the code, even though I was able to read the source to my screen.
Where can one look to gleen some information as to how to kill the instance of the demon child without having to do
what my DBA did and restart out database instance? Any v$ views etc?

If you are in sqlplus when it locks up, you can simply enter <control> c
that should kill the process. If you close your sqlplus session in any other way than standard exit procedures, depending on your setup, you either wait for pmon to find the defunct process or the administrator has to kill it for you.

RE: Environment Nodemgr Crashes Unexpectedly

If you didn't install with a fresh repository, I'd suggest it (but that should
give you
a repository problem -just a good idea). Also, did you install 3.G and
not just certain files to upgrade. I assume you did and this is best. Do you
have any more info re:
the platform - is this IBM RS6000 as this message suggests? Have you tried
re-installing? I
assume your environments are compatible with this release?
Good luck.

Subject: Environment Nodemgr Crashes Unexpectedly
Hello fellow Forte System Managers,
We have been having unpredictable crashes of the environment
nodemgr ever since we upgraded from Forte 3.F to 3.G. Forte's advice so
far has been to increase FORTE_STACK_SIZE to 150000 . This does not
seem to have helped the situatation. We are fairly sure we are not
running out of memory on the nodemgr, and the nodemgr log has very
little information, typically something like this:

Walter,
Is your client the same version as your server? We have had mysterious
problems in the past when we upgraded the client only. For example, you
upgrade your client to 3.G. but your server is still running 3.F. When we
upgraded our server to the same version as our client the mysterious
problems went away. However, Forte claims that this shouldn't be a problem
and it really shouldn't.
I don't know if this will solve your problem but it is sure worth
looking into.

Runaway Processes in our EBS 11i Server

Hi hussein,
RHEL 4.6
EBS 11i
I am confused with was is happening to our EBS 11i server.
I usually clear everything by shutting down all apps and db tiers process.
then I check ps -ef| and I see that there is no more appsmgr and oramgr id running.
But after a while....there will start some appsmgr process but no oramgr process I do not know if someone has triggered this process in crontab? but I can not idenfy which process starting it. I can see <defunct> status in the "top"
monitoring and it is consuming cpu and memory resources. I just can not understand why this appsmgr process can run without a database?

Finding and killing runaways in Oracle

I am very new to the DBA side of Oracle.
I have several "Power Users" that are constantly kicking off outrageous queries without joins and then just killing their telnet sessions and reconnecting to correct the mistake and then complaining about performance. I think that this is leaving the query running in the background.
Since neither removing their keyboards nor removing their fingers are options is there any way to check out resources and who is running what in the database and kill/or any runaway processes or queries?
Any help would be appreciated,
Chris S.

The problem with resource limits is that you prevent ligitimate large queries.
So the problem becomes identifying the large queries that cause the problems.
I am currently looking at statistics so I do not have all the answers yet. One place to start looking for the sinners is v$session, v$sesstat and v$statname(?).
Run this query every 5 minutes check the large queries and users with many queries. Users with more than one session are the ones you would be interested in. This is not perfect, but it is a start.
If you are on Unix you can set this up in Crontab and create a shell script that checks for specifics in the result and send you an email.
One thing I have found to cause big problems is when we use "default" for parallelism, one user can pretty much kill the server that way, if accessing a large table spanning many files I have seen up to 30 parallel queries running at once. If all the parallel processes are busy everybody else will be running non-parallel.
