I have already asked about diagmond.
Could anyone tell me which log it's writting too?
Where to find out if there are any hardware problem?

Thank you.

Hi:

Do a 'man diagmond' to see where to look.

Hi

Looks as though it is spinning

I'm sure diagmond is part of stm

The logs are in /var/stm/logs/sys

The daemons are started

via/sbin/init.d/diagnostic

We have had instances of this, i'll have a look further for you

In the meantime , from the prompt type

stm

and have a look round

Regards

Hi,

Try this:

# man diagmond

This will list you all files/logs used by this daemon. If you have a hardware problem, you can look in these logs ( normally in /var/stm/logs ), run 'stm' and find out OR check in the syslog.log file.

HTH,

There are some patches for this specific problem of diagmond running 99% of CPU. Look in ITRC for that specific Patch.

Hi

Have checked further and found issue regarding
faulty scsi card, faulty disk and out of date patching levels

If there are no hardware issues, suggest checking patching levels

Just do a search on diagmond from the forums. There is plenty of info from hp staff regarding which patch etc

Have also found advise stating if you have trouble stopping diagmond via diagnostic stop , then attempt to stop via stm

stm
system
Daemons
Daemon shutdown
Dameon startup

Do not kill -9 the daemon as it will not release it's socket correctly causing further problems
