We're running 7.4.9 and have run into something strange.
A group of processes seem to have hung and cannot be killed. netstat
showed that there were no active TCP connections at the time. Sending
SIGTERM to the parent process caused PG to begin its shutdown, but it
never finished. We then kill -9 the postmaster, which caused it to
die, but these child procs remain, even after a clean restart. Our
next step is to reboot the box, but before we do, I'm just curious
anyone else has seen this, why this happened, and if anyone know ways
to prevent this from happening again.....
thanks
