Error description
Information Server 801 FP1A: DSD.RUN processes not going away and jobs remain in a "running" state, though the job has really finished from a PX perspective and all the osh processes have gone away. These processes cannot be killed, as they seem to be in an I/O waiting state and the machine needs to be re-booted to clear them up.
Local fix
This fix is included in 8.0.1 fix pack 3
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: UNIX platforms running parallel jobs **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The DSD.RUN process which starts a parallel job can hang. A timeout alarm can occur during processing that results in DSD.RUN missing the receipt of the osh pid and return code from the pipe. **************************************************************** RECOMMENDATION: Patches have been provided on Redhat 8.0.1.1 and Suse 7.5.3. Fix will be committed into further source. This fix is included in 8.1 FP1 for RedHat/Suse Intel, Solaris, HP-Itanium. ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
A new executable has been introduced on UNIX called OshWrapper to handle the receipt of osh pid and return code. OshWrapper will be run in place of the OshExecuter.sh script.
