We noticed that the connection of a sensor to the director was down. nrconns on the sensor showed an error message indicating a probem to communicate with postoffice daemon (sorry exact message got lost).
nrstatus showed all processes as up, but packetd was owned by root. After 5 minutes nrconns showed all connections as up and established and packetd was owned by netrangr.
The question is now, what happened and what is wrong ?
Hmmh, we have a scipt running, which does a nrstop;nrstart if one of the processes
nr.sapd
nr.loggerd
nr.postofficed
nr.packetd
is missing in nrstatus output. In our case nr.loggerd was missing. Does nrconns not work for a while after restart?
Is it normal that one or more processes are missing in the nrstatus output sometimes ? At the moment the script finds at least once a day a reason to restart the services (the script is started every 10 minutes) and other sensor sdoes not have this behaviour.
