The previous situation looked OK for a few days as well, so it may be
too early to judge.

Did this stabilize since I set the number of background updaters to 0? If
so, we could think about trying 5 (which is what Brutus had). Or, ought we
just leave well alone for now?

Ok. Just for clarity, this lock file can exist (even if the process is dead)
but unless it is POSIX locked it isn't a problem. If the process isn't dead,
chances are it is lock. Still, this is likely a side-effect of the real
problem, i.e. whatever is hanging Gump.

I believe these locks are (as you say) a result of SVN failures (perhaps us
killing it due to hang-up.) What we've experienced is that they cause a new
"svn update" (should one occur, see gump.lock above) to fail stating we need
to do an "svn cleanup". I'll code this one of these days, but it doesn't
seem like it should be the cause but a symptom.

So, we still need to track down the root cause of why VmGump is hanging.
Hopefully setting the number of background threads to 0 will help.

Anybody know of any log files/other on Linux that could tell us if a system
resource had been exhausted? Could (say) file handles have been exhausted,
or something else that SVN uses?

regards,

Adam

gump.lock was present, and belonged to the Gump instance from Sunday
noon.

Inside of workspace/cvs there have been ten .lock files all dated
between 0 and 1am Sunday morning.

Sorry, can you be more explicit? What sort of locks?

BTW: We can limit the number of background threads (to none, if needed) for
updates by editing the workspace definition.

Killed Gump, removed locks

2005-06-20 Thread Stefan Bodewig
Hi all,

logfiles are in ~gump/20050619.

This time it looks as if the midnight run Sunday morning died during
updates or syncs and didn't clean up after itself.  The noon run then
made it into the updates and starved because of the locks left over
from midnight.
