Could anyone please tell me what might cause a process to enter an I
status or idle status. I had two cron jobs which did not run a few
nights ago, specifically the daily run output and aide. The next day
when I looked at the status of the jobs with the ps aux command, it
stated that the status was I or idle for both of these cron jobs. I
was unable to kill the jobs even with kill -9 and had to reboot the
server. Now everything is fine and the cron jobs ran again last night;
however, I would like to know what might cause this so I can prevent it
from happening again.
Thank you,
Michelle
