We have an application that does _a_lot_ of process handling.  A
master process initiates sub-processes on other devices.  We also
use a lot of message files.  Ever since going up on 5.0 push, we
have been in situations, ocassionally, where the parent process has
died (for whatever reason), but the child processes are still alive.
This is seen by going into glance and looking at the session screen
for the parent session - the parent process number has a priority of
0 (zero).
 
Has anybody ever heard of this before (not including you, Elbert)?
 
Most importantly, is there a patch for it (I'm tired of being woken
up at three in the morning because the backup failed)?
 
TIA,
 
I know the thoughts expressed here are my own because no one else would claim
them!
