up_the_ironsI actually had to attach to init(1) with gdb and reap a zombie process. Supposed to be a "this should never happen" scenario with init, but ...
http://serverfault.com/questions/575162/remove-a-zombie-process-from-the-process-table
It ended up working :)

brycecInteresting. And here I thought a reboot was the only way to reap zombies.
(Trusty serverfault/stackoverflow - Initial question is "Yes I know the usual reasons *lists them off*" and someone responds with one of those reasons. Morons.)
[11:58]
up_the_ironsYeah I never knew there was an alternative to reboot [12:03]

up_the_ironsI think kvr18 just crashed [12:48]
brycecI'm inclined to agree :(
Description: No report from Monit for 182 seconds: the network, the host or Monit is down. Last report was 19 Jan 2017 15:45:53 -0500
brycec demands that up_the_irons fix it
[12:54]

brycecbrycec wonders why it's still down 20 minutes after it was acknowledged down [13:06]
up_the_ironsbrycec: i see everything up now; are you still having problems? [13:13]
brycecmy vps hasn't phoned-home yet and isn't pinging. 1s while I check console
manual fsck >:(
(thanks for the prodding)
[13:14]
up_the_irons:) [13:15]
brycecup_the_irons: thoughts/clues on what happened to kvr18?
(just curious)
[13:20]
up_the_ironsbrycec: no idea; i was doing that zombie reaping. worked at first, but then didn't subsequent times, and there was a VPS stuck in shutdown. I've actually never seen it like that before, ever. Maybe something was up with the host, b/c eventually the whole thing froze. [13:22]
brycecHuh, weird.
brycec ticks the "blame up_the_irons" reason tickbox
[13:22]
up_the_ironsup_the_irons cries [13:22]
mercutioi'm not sure zombie reaping is helpful [13:22]
up_the_ironsmercutio: VM wouldn't start until I reaped the zombie; then it started fine [13:23]
mercutioit used to be when things started zombieing that it was due to memory management etc bugs iirc [13:23]
up_the_ironsI have no idea why all it's resources (tap, disk , etc...) were still held by the zombie [13:23]
mercutiohmm
was that the same vps that got stuck?
[13:23]
up_the_ironsyup, got stuck 3 times [13:24]
mercutioweird. t's still strange. why that host, why that vm [13:24]
up_the_ironsexactly [13:24]
mercutioit may be some weird race condition that hardly ever happens
that broke something that made it break again

nathaniwhats a zombie? [20:55]
mercutiowhen a process state says Z in top
it's basically a stuck process
[21:00]
mike-burnsIt's a child process that is not properly detached, right? [21:00]
mercutiohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_process [21:00]
BryceBotZombie process :: On Unix and Unix-like computer operating systems, a zombie process or defunct process is a process that has completed execution (via the exit system call) but still has an entry in the process table: it is a process in the "Terminated state". This occurs for child processes, where the entry is still needed to allow the parent process to read its child's exit status: once the exit status is read via the wait system call... [21:00]
mike-burnsYeah, that. [21:00]
