Description Timothy St. Clair 2011-01-24 15:02:45 UTC
Description of problem:
When attempting to start condor on loaded windows system (running other services&apps) it appears that the configd goes into a cycling loop, where the configd will exit w/status 1.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3-9.2

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a system either either a service or task @ normal priority.  My specific case was an Intel SSD re-balancing service
2. net start condor
3. Monitor process explorer and MasterLog 
  
Actual results:
From the master log it appears that the configd fails without any logs.

Expected results:
normal startup

Comment 2 Robert Rati 2011-03-25 16:45:42 UTC
Haven't been able to repro except on a Win XP machine and Intel's SSD re-balancing software running.  Given the resources consumed by the SSD re-balancer, this could be a lack of memory/disk space needed to start the python interpreter and run the configd.  On win7, the same sw doesn't cause near as high a load and the issue is not reproducible.
