Hi,

On a server irix-6.5.x (client is server) running 2.5.1p3 I get a lot of
defunct processes when an amanda dump session fails, like running out of tapes
or holdding disk. Right now there are 19 gtar processes running amok on that
server:

    root    1335831    1336098  0        - -       0:00 <defunct> 
    root    1336098          1  0 09:20:36 ?      127:56 gtar --create --file
- --directory /data/mafalda/mafalda1/susanita/jen/anxiety_

I've attached the sendbackup and runtar debug files for the pid of the
gtar above. Looks like signals between child and parents are not setup
properly in amanda-2.5.1pX when running on irix...

regards, jf
