Post subject: | Mbmon High Processor Utilization? |
Hello, Yesterday I finally got the rrdtool configured on my R5E50 system. This morning I figured I'd take a look at the graphs to see what my utilization was like yesterday when I was watching and recording some HD shows. At about 9:20a this morning my CPU utilization jumped to 100% and stayed there. I checked the status through MythWeb and nothing was recording, so I remoted (ssh) in to the system to see what was going on. Top showed two running mbmon processes using 100% utilization. I killed those two processes, but was wondering if anyone else had noticed that behavior after configuring rrdtool. Thanks, |

I havnt even configured rrdtool or anything like that -- I'm on a fresh install of KnoppMyth R5E50 and mbmon is right now taking up 68% cpu and slowly rising. If I kill the process, it just comes back! Right now my TV is on really old hardware as I had to use the box Myth was previously on for something else... and this is virtually bringing the box to a complete halt. Would love to know how to get rid of this! I dont need/and/or/want to do any temperature monitoring. --Eric |

Hello, Out of the box, KM R5E50 should run the rrd update process hourly as the command to start it is in the /etc/cron.hourly directory. You should be able to remove the rrd_km file from that directory to keep it from running. However, I'm in the situation where I would like it to run, at least for the time being while I get my HD stuff set up. I want to keep track of processor utilization and the eth0 traffic. The rest I could probably do without. However, I just had to kill a dozen or so (lost count) mbmon processes, some of which had been running for over 4 hours. I have removed my rrd configuration from my crontab, but would really like to know why this is happening as I would like to have the information rrd_tool provides. |

While waiting for a response, I just did an "apt-get remove mbmon", since I couldnt find out where it was spawning from. I cant believe I didnt think to check cron. Sheesh. Thanks for the tip. If I decide to reinstall it, now I'll know. --Eric |

Well, I just wound up removing all of the *temp options from the script that run rrd. So now mbmon never runs, but I still get all of the other stats. |

Well, this had been an interesting academic discussion for me, until yesterday, when I found mbmon had taken over 50% of processor cycles and had been doing so for 6 hours when I discovered it (by rrd tool graph) HD live TV now was pegging the processor at 100% and stuttering. I went into webmin and turned off all the rrd tool processes, but the stuttering continued (probably needed re-boot) so I ssh-ed into the rrd_km file in /etc/cron.hourly and commented out all the lines in the file UFN.. After a re-boot the pvr function was OK, but rrd tools is disabled. Anyone know why this would work OK for two weeks and then suddenly turn on like that ? |
