It may be. I saw that issue, but as it only had occasional zombie processes, and a max of two, I thought it also might be unrelated. For now, I'm having to restart my Netdata container every few hours to keep the processes under control. |
Have you considered downgrade? |
I could downgrade, but I'm inevitably going to have to run the v1.22 again to troubleshoot. I just put a restart command in my crontab and that way I have a running container from which to pull logs, data, etc. |
Can you share Edit: this would actually be |
@kmlucy can you run |
[ilyam@ilyam-pc ~]$ docker exec -it netdata ps -eo "pid,ppid,user,args"
PID PPID USER COMMAND
1 0 netdata /usr/sbin/netdata -u netdata -D -s /host -p 19999 -W set w

344 1 netdata [timeout]
472 0 root ps -eo pid,ppid,user,args |
@kmlucy could you disable |
Error logs ( Disabling the NUT collector seems to have fixed the issue.
|
The takeaway here is that all those processes are under PID 1 and not under PID 7. I'll look into it. |
