Not sure if this is only a display problem or if I missed something in setup. |

When I run ps ax I see several processes in brackets indicating they have |
4 |
been swapped out. |
5 |
|
6 |
For example |
7 |
|
8 |
pid ? SL 0:00 [ntpd] |
9 |
pid ? S 0:00 [apache2] |
10 |
pid ? S 0:00 [CGServer] this is my mailsever |
11 |
pid ? S 0:00 [CGServer] |
12 |
pid ? S 0:00 [CGServer] |
13 |
pid ? S 0:00 [CGServer] |
14 |
pid ? S 0:00 [CGServer] |
15 |
|
16 |
But not all processes, cron and sshd look as |
17 |
I would have expected and show the command line. |
18 |
|
19 |
pid ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd |
20 |
pid ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/cron |
21 |
|
22 |
I realize processes can be swapped in and out as necessary. But I did not |
23 |
expect a server coming up under no load to display this. I don't see this |
24 |
behavior on my Redhat severs. This sever has 512 MB of RAM. top shows |
25 |
about 62 MB of RAM used and all but one process is sleeping. |
26 |
|
27 |
Using 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 kernel. |
28 |
|
29 |
Is this normal behavior for Gentoo? Or did I miss something in setup? |
