Hi,
I see a zombie process left out by ceilometer-api after a client command
like "ceilometer meter-list". This seems to occur only when I change the
number of workers for [api] section in ceilometer.conf to 2 or more.
With default value of workers = 1, there is no zombie.
Has anybody
Here is the output of "ps aux | grep ceilometer-api" after "ceilometer
meter-list"
ceilome+ 27192 1.0 1.1 247400 60388 ?Ss 14:10 0:00
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/ceilometer-api
--config-file=/etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf
--logfile=/var/log/ceilometer/api.log
ceilome+ 27655 15.3 0.0
can you clarify what you mean by 'zombie process'? i'm not aware of a
bug relating to this so could you open one.
just for reference, this is the suggested method for deploying the
ceilometer-api:

if you have configured two workers and you have two ceilometer-api
processes and an extra 'zombie' process, then it's correct.
someone else might be able to articulate this better but when you use
workers, it creates child processes that represent the workers you set,
and there is a parent
