But wouldn't uninstall the CM client stop the countdown? Obviously not a step to take for a large number of servers, but if you have one or two that have the problem it is a quick fix. Note: I haven't actually tried this, I'd prefer you do that... in production. :-) On Mon, Aug 18, 2014 at 2:50 PM, Daniel Ratliff <[email protected]> wrote: Worst case maybe try to find the culprit process and kill it.

There was a big thread on this list a few months back about it. I’ll see if I can find it.
