[Condor-users] Collector Hangs if CONDOR_VIEW_HOST not responding

[<Greg.Hitchen@xxxxxxxx>]

Title: Collector Hangs if CONDOR_VIEW_HOST not responding

We had some central managers pointing to a view server host with no problems.

Added another CM (6.6.10 on RHES4) and all was OK (call this condor1).

View server machine died.

condor1 stilll OK.

Added another CM (6.6.10 on RHES4) and condor_status hangs (call this condor2).
Telnet to port 9618 doesn't exit after 3 <CR>'s (as it should do).

restart condor1 and it now doesn't work properly either, the same as condor2.

Comment out CONDOR_VIEW_HOST in both config files.

/etc/rc.d/init.d/condor stop doesn't work, must kill -9 all condor processes.

restart condor and all  is OK again.

Is this to be expected?

Cheers

Greg
