Description Dan Callaghan 2012-11-08 03:42:06 UTC 
I just found this beaker_expire_distros process in my devel environment, it has been dead for four weeks:

# ps -lf 30059
F S UID        PID  PPID  C PRI  NI ADDR SZ WCHAN  STIME TTY        TIME CMD
0 S root     30059 30057  0  80   0 - 23129 sk_wai Sep13 ?          0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/beaker-expire-distros

Looks like it got stuck talking to a Fedora FTP mirror:

# lsof -p30059
COMMAND     PID USER   FD   TYPE  DEVICE SIZE/OFF    NODE NAME
[...]
beaker-ex 30059 root    4u  IPv4 8294590      0t0     TCP dhcp-40-138.bne.redhat.com:41668->ftp.cc.swin.edu.au:ftp (ESTABLISHED)

A reasonable timeout (perhaps 20 seconds) should be enforced for connects and reads for HTTP and FTP. Can't do much about NFS over autofs unfortunately.
