snapshots_maintenance stuck in running state

[kmartin]

Any idea what's going on here and how to recover? snapshots_maintenance stuck and does not finish. Here's the snippet from the command subsystem -

The status displayed in the interface can sometimes get stuck if there were problems or if the job just took a long time. Run the following on the command line to see if it is actually still running:

Code: Select all

ps aux | grep curator

If you don't see a curator process running then you'll be okay just resetting the statuses with the "Reset All Jobs" button.

To check for problems you can run:

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagioslogserver/var/jobs.log

and while that is running click the "Run" action for the snapshots_maintenance job. It may lag a few seconds, but it should display details on that job and if there are any problems.
