Title: Multiple volume processes WTH ?!
Post by: Jose on March 15, 2010, 10:54:29 PM

This weekend I was fiddling with my A4000T a bit, installing a Toccata :) and I noticed almost by accident on scout and Executive (though I plan to uninstall this last one for now..) that I have two processes for each of my HD partitions, each with different priorities (one 10, other 11).
I don't think this is normally, can anyone comment on that ?
I also had a whole bunch of exec devices on Devs: for controllers I never had, most likely I got bored while installing 3.9/BB2 a few years back and messed up something...

Can someone comment on what would be the causes of those, specially the 1st one as it's not controlled by user directly so it's really odd...

Cheers
José

Just to clarify the 1st problem, for example I have partitions SDH0/1/2/3 .../5. For each of those there are two processes with the same name and priorities of 10 and eleven. Not normal is it ?

If these partitions are SFS formatted, it is normal. Don't ask me why this happens.

Yes, I'm running SFS.

THanks for the info...
