scrdaemon , opcmsga , midaemon taking more cpu help me please

[shabev]

Hi,

In my HP-UX Box I can see scrdaemon , opcmsga , midaemon are taking more CPU.
And the total CPU usage is 100%.

Can any one tell me what is there process and how to stop these?

Please help me in this regard.

scrdaemon = System Configuration Repository - if you don't know what this is, you can turn it off permanently in /etc/rc.config.d and kill the process.

opcmsga = part of the OpenView system management toolset. You are probably behind on patches.

midaemon = measurement used by glance, gpm and mwa. You need to bring the patch level for Glance/MWA up to the latest level. Use the command:

mwa version

C.03.71 is really, really old. Is your HP-UX version 10.20? Finding a patch or upgrade for Glance will be very difficult. You might be able to find something for 11.00 but as it is not supported either, Glance updates may be a problem. If this is HP-UX 11.11 then this version is very likely incompatible. You might take a look at the midaemon log file for some ideas.

Hi Sahbev,

You may consider upgrade to OVPA 4.5
