[Pulp-list] Runaway Pulp Tasks

[Deej Howard]

                I assume you’ve already tried using “pulp-admin tasks
purge”, right (ref: https://www.mankier.com/1/pulp-admin#Tasks-Purging)?

We are using rabbitMQ rather than qpidd, but I’ve stopped and started all
of the relevant services to no avail.

Thanks

You can stop pulp_resource_manager, pulp_workers, and qpidd. Then start
qpidd, pulp_resource_manager, and pulp_workers. The workers will mark the
tasks as canceled in the database when they start and qpid should drain the
queue when it is restarted.

Anyone ever encountered anything like this? I found 67K pulp tasks pending
on one of my pulp servers today. I’m running pulp 2.10.3-1 (I know I know
I’m fixing that) with mongoDB 2.6 on RHEL7 with a couple hundred yum repos
and one python repo. We recently developed a config mgmt. state to manage
the pulp repos on all our pulp servers, and that appears to have caused
this issue by submitting a large number of pulp tasks in a short period and
then trying again 30 minutes later. My question now, is how can I kill so
many pulp tasks in a more efficient manner than the for loop I’m using?



# A whole lotta pulp tasks

[root at pulp-server :~]# pulp-admin tasks list |grep 'Task Id' |wc -l

67016



# A for loop to generate a list of the task IDs and cancel one at a time.

for n in `pulp-admin tasks list |grep 'Task Id' |awk '{print $NF}'`; do
echo $n; pulp-admin tasks cancel --task-id $n; done



Thanks
