Topic: TAR Process hanging CPU at 99.4%

[Dan Williams]

Hello,
Our SME 5.5 server seemed a little choppy this last while, so I issued the TOP command.
It shows that TAR is using 99.4% CPU and has been running for 11011 min.
I had the backup2ws rpm installed, and the dungog rsysnc and backup installed.
I removed those rpm's and the tar is still running.
I will reboot the server and that should sort it our, but has anyone else had this?
Dan
