    Asuswrt WebUI CPU Graph include AiMesh Nodes?

    @RMerlin It turned out to be NFS traffic generated from the AiMesh Node. Thanks, again, for all that you do. Much Respect, Gary

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    Nice! I'll have to give that a try. Would the $PID be the parent or the child? Previously, kill -9 only worked on the parent.

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow Unfortunately, I believe, if the process gets to the defunct state, it's too late to kill it. As always, I appreciate your skills. Respectfully, Gary

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    All: I ended up modifying the zomg_cfg_server script (with a 1 minute cronjob) to only kill -9 any newly created cfg_server processes greater than the original 3 processes, which appears to be working without invoking the watchdog start_cfgsync process (as the parent cfg_server is preserved in...

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    Doesn't that essentially do the same thing? I'm wondering if killing any processes other than the first 3 might do the trick?

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    @ScottW @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow It seems "killall -9 cfg_server" causes the watchdog to execute a "start_cfgsync" on the primary router; thus, the alternative to the killall is the following: # service restart_cfgsync However, it seems to force the AiMesh Nodes to execute a...

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    Presently, there are no defunct processes reported: # ps -T | awk '/cfg_server/ {print $1}' | sed '$d' | awk '{printf "%s ",$0} END {print ""}' 18160 18168 18169 # ps -T | awk '/defunct/ {print $1}' | sed '$d' | awk '{printf "%s ",$0} END {print ""}' #

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    If there's already a watchdog to restart cfg_server, I'm less concerned about ill effects. No can do. My AiMesh Nodes are multifaceted and highly customized as BotNodes and TorNodes. Star Topology Directly Connected to Primary Router with a single AiMesh Node piggybacking off of one of the...

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    This is precisely the method proposed in the previously mentioned post. The problem is that after killall -9 cfg_server is executed on my router, the processes all became defunct and did not re-spawn. I wonder if it must be done prior to maxing out the RAM and hitting swap? I'll setup the...

    RT-AC66U_B1 (All) Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 (All) Yes 5 x AiMesh Nodes Ethernet Backhaul (All) My original attempt to killall -9 cfg_server processes was based on the suggestion from the previous post you referenced, but did not resolve the issue as all cfg_server processes became defunct and...

    Defunct cfg_server Zombies

    All: On my primary router, I've run into an issue where cfg_server child processes die, become defunct, grow to 15 - 20 zombie processes, consume all of my available RAM, and cause the primary router to start swapping. Once the primary router starts swapping, the load-average starts...

    Asuswrt WebUI CPU Graph include AiMesh Nodes?

    @RMerlin My initial observation must have been a coincidence. Further high cpu and zero bandwidth load testing on various AiMesh Nodes supports your conclusion. Appreciate your response. Thank you for your great work. With Great Respect, Gary

    Asuswrt WebUI CPU Graph include AiMesh Nodes?

    All: Does the Asuswrt WebUI CPU Graph include AiMesh Nodes? I've notice that when I execute a high cpu and zero bandwidth command on an AiMesh Node that it seems to be reflected within the Asuswrt WebUI CPU Graph. Thanks. Gary

    Tutorial Asus Dual WAN Router Load Balancing and Failover Router Problems and Fix

    How do you have your Asuswrt VPN configured (i.e., interface, ip, etc)? It sounds like what you want is a Split Tunnel VPN configuration, which is a separate topic. If so, search this forum for related Split Tunnel VPN posts and ask your VPN questions there.

    Tutorial Asus Dual WAN Router Load Balancing and Failover Router Problems and Fix

    In my example, I removed your OpenWRT device from the topology, terminating Conn1 and Conn2 into the Asuswrt Dual-WAN, and used the Dual-WAN Routing feature to route VPN1 to Conn1 and VPN2 to Conn2.

    Asuswrt provides a routing section under the Dual-WAN feature for this purpose. ;)

    Tutorial Asus Dual WAN Router Load Balancing and Failover Router Problems and Fix

    With Asuswrt or OpenWRT Loadbalancing, any single VPN can make use of a single Internet connection at any given time with the max speed being that of a single Internet connection. If you increase that by two VPN connections, you could make use of both Internet connections separately, but the...
