I found process cmcd in Itanium servers.
What is the process cmcd?
How does it work?
Why it consume much cpu sometimes?

Hi,

I think you are talking about cmcld ?

If its cmcld then its a serviceguard cluster daemon
for more information please refer any sg cluster book or go through below link.

Hi Suraj K Sankari

It is not cmcld.
It is cmcd, its parent process is swapper.

Dear Sir

not cmcld it is cluster daemon,
but cmcd is the one of the process running under root related to virtual memory


thanks and regards

Hi,

I have not seen this process much.
Use #ps -fp to know more about the process.
