[Asterisk-Users] RE: Several asterisk processes starting with safe_asterisk

[Ricardo Monteiro]

In case this will be of any use, here it is a list of the processes. We
can see that the safe_asterisk script (PID 19368) starts the first
asterisk process (PID 19389) that starts a second one (PID 19401) and
this second one is responsible to start all the others.

 

root     19368     1  0 10:58 pts/4    00:00:00 /bin/sh
/usr/sbin/safe_asterisk

Subject: Several asterisk processes starting with safe_asterisk

 

Hi,

            I'm running asterisk 1.2.0 on a debian rel 2.6.13 and when I
start it with safe asterisk I got instantly more then 10 processes.
Until now I didn't detected any impact of this process proliferation in
the system, but it is strange and I'm not comfortable with this.

 

Is this a know problem? Any ideas what is the problem here, or where to
start searching?

 

I think I also have notice this behavior in another system (different
debian release) when starting asterisk in the normal way, but I don't
have the system here to check.

 

Thanks for any clue you can provide.

            Ricardo
