Scott,
Is this in-line action blocks or action blocks? An action block should
be forked. If you have any in-line, I would guess you are calling
something that does not return. Is your machine creating a lot of
"zombie" processes which could impact new processes? When a process ends
it stays around until an AIX cleanup routine runs that finds it and stops
the process. If you have something in your inittab that is not ending
this keeps the AIX cleanup routine from working and all ended processes
will still exist as zombies. Eventually it will keep new processes from
being forked....but first you will see a big performance problem.
Kind regards,
