1/ check the logs
2/ if logs are not enabled, enable the logs
3/ run collectd with -f option to prevent forking. You can find some problems like this 4/ check if there is a core file. If not, enable it to generate a core (man ulimit, coreadm...) 5/ get information from the core file (gdb, dbx are debuggers. Get the stacktrace to know where it cores. With gdb, "bt" is the command) 6/ run Collectd with fewer plugins in order to find out if (and which) plugin is broken or misconfigured


Step 1 to 5 are generic to any program (step 3 is generit to any daemon)
Step 6 is specific to Collectd.

What is the best approach?

Currently I am just restarting them.
