[Pacemaker] pingd CPU usage increases slowly

[Stelio Plautz]

Hi all,

I've set up a 2 node cluster on debian etch amd64, pacemaker 1.0.2-1
and heartbeat 2.99.1-1 from suse repository.
everything works fine, but pingd increases CPU usage slowly. I've two
pingd processes running and both use about 100 % CPU after 3 weeks.

166h44:20 /usr/lib/heartbeat/pingd -D -p /var/run/public_net.pid -a
public_net -d 5s -m 100 -h xxx.xxx.xxx.1 14098 root      15   0 1299M
1263M   936 R 47.0  7.4 166h42:22 /usr/lib/heartbeat/pingd -D
-p /var/run/mgmt_net.pid -a mgmt_net -d 5s -m 100 -h zzz.zzz.zzz.1

I've found the following link ...
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linuxha/pacemaker/54236
... and installed the pingd RA from pacemaker 1.0.3-1.
The default ping interval is now 1, but pingd CPU usage still
slow-growing.  

Thanks for any advice
