Zombie bacula-sd and open port

06 Jul 2009

Weird...Just ran into a problem with restarting bacula-sd. For some reason, the previous instance had died badly and left a zombie process. I restarted bacula-sd but was left with an open port:

# sudo netstat -tupan | grep 9103
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:9103                0.0.0.0:* LISTEN      -

which meant that bconsole hung every time it tried to get the status of bacula-sd. Unsure what to do, I tried telnetting to it for fun and then quit; after that the port was freed up and grabbed by the already-running storage daemon:

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:9103                0.0.0.0:* LISTEN      16254/bacula-sd

and bconsole was able to see it just fine:
