Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1335391
Multiple miq servers running at the same time eating up memory
Last modified: 2016-06-29 11:59:40 EDT
My guess is that this is the problem: https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq/pull/8707 We changed the server setproctitle to "MIQ Server" but the "rake evm:start" (start evmserverd) mechanism which prevents multiple server processes was looking for evm_server.rb. I'll try to get that PR merged and we can try backporting it to 5.6 to see if it helps.

When we changed the process title using setproctitle to "MIQ Server" [1], we broke rake evm:start's detection of a previously running server. While a process title/command line is somewhat helpful to check, only the server should be writing to evm.pid so checking for a process from evm.pid is enough. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1335391 [1] 1ba7801ee1d2591f17fe05861d726ac0d9a20fa1 app/models/miq_server.rb | 2 +- spec/models/miq_server_spec.rb | 9 +++++++++ 2 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
