What is mynotify?
-
I just up'ed the specs on my web server, as I noticed the processor was getting over-maxed. As you'll see at the top, it says CPU is at 107%. It did say over 120% but I didn't get the screenshot of it. My question is: what is the command "mynotify"? That's what seems to be eating up all my processing. Everything else looks good. The server is a VM on ESXi 5.1 with a single quad-core CPU at 3.3GHz and 4GB of RAM allocated. It's Ubuntu Server 14.04 x64. Not sure what it is. The site has been a little slow lately. Any help is appreciated!I'm off to bed. Have a good night all, and I'll be on tomorrow!
Thanks,

Using Unitrends for your backups, perhaps? That's a Unitrends process.

Quick search agrees with SAM, appears to be a process commonly used by Unitrends to monitor file system changes.

I am using Unitrends for backup. That would make sense. But why would the agent use THAT MUCH in terms of resources?

There's a KB on this:

http://support.unitrends.com/ikm/questions.php?questionid=378Followed the KB. It was all accurate as to stuff being there that was supposed to be there. I rebooted and ran top. The process was no longer coming up maxing the CPU. I'm running a differential backup to make sure it goes through, as I have a good master from Sunday. It's weird that you modify the option under Incremental Forever but I'm running Full w/ Diffs. Linux, last I knew, can't do Incremental Forever. Just Full w/ Diffs.
