how can I remove "diaglogd" from the system?

[Bernard Bravo]

Hi,

below were taken from "top" were diaglogd eats up 99% of the CPU.

NI SIZE RES STATE TIME %WCPU %CPU COMMAND
10 320K 348K run 110:53 99.74 99.57 diaglogd
20 13376K 3368K sleep 3:16 5.90 5.89 dataserver

does "diaglogd" make the system slowdown.

hope some expert could help me on these.

thanks.

the dialogd-bug strikes again ;)
-start stm
-stop driver/daemon or something like that (sorry have no server to check at the moment)
-clean its logfile (is probably BIG)
-then you can restart dialogd from within stm

regards,
Thierry.

There is a known issue with Diagnostics where diaglogd consumes a lot of cpu. To resolve you can install patches for STM or update to the latest version of diagnostics.

To help recommend patches, what version of STM is running?

# swlist -l fileset |grep STM
B.??.00.??.?? <-- shown in swlist output

You can download diagnostics from here:

Yes, This is a known issue.
Try to get the latest release of STM at www.software.hp.com.
It's free.
And a temporary way of getting rid of "diaglogd" runing is to stop diagnostics.

# /sbin/init.d/diagnostic stop

Hope this helps.
