Duc,
If I remember correctly we have tried killing the PID with no success.  But I 
will verify the next time it happens.
Also, we are running version 6.5 on an AW51E.

Alan,

What version of software are you running?

I ask because I remember we used to have problems like this in the previous
software version we were at (6.1, if I recall correctly) if the DM is exited
any way other than through the DM_Usage screen. We no longer have to be that
rigid now at v6.2.1.

Nonetheless, every once in a great while, there still is an issue with a DM
that has been terminated but still shown up as being used on the DM_Usage
screen. Instead of rebooting the AW or WP, we just kill the offending
process using "kill <PID>" on the command line.

To find the process ID of the DM in question, download the program dmstatus
(dmstat.tar.Z) from the Cassandra web site.

Subject: [foxboro] DM Locked Up with Go-Global


I have a question for all of you Go-Global users.  We are having a problem
with multiple Go-Global DM's running on a single AW.  We have 5 DM's that
can run on this AW remotely using Go-Global.  We are seeing the DM will
disappear on the remote computer but the AW will not release that DM to be
used.  It's like the AW has a hold of it but it won't let go.  I suspect it
has to do with the improper shutdown of the DM but that's another problem.
The real problem is that the only way to free up the DM is to reboot the
AW!!!  We can't kill the DM or stop it via the DM usage display.  Up to this
point Foxboro hasn't given us an answer and we are getting tired of having
to reboot the AW.  Has anyone else seen this type of behavior and if so what
was the fix?

Thanks,
