[rabbitmq-discuss] Node hung and not responding to rabbitmqctl

[Bill Moseley]

I've been working with clustering (on a single test machine) and I stopped
the 2nd RAM node w/o problem but now the initial disk node seems
unresponsive.  All of the rabbitmqctl commands hang.   Initially, connecting
to the node would also hang, but not Rabbit doesn't seem to be listening to
the port any more.


$ sudo rabbitmqctl stop_app
Stopping node rabbit at bumby2 ...


After a few minutes I abort and "k" for kill and get the following:

^C
BREAK: (a)bort (c)ontinue (p)roc info (i)nfo (l)oaded
       (v)ersion (k)ill (D)b-tables (d)istribution

Seems to be a lot of these hanging around:

And logs:

Ubuntu Erlang1:13.b.1-dfsg-2ubuntu1.1 / RabbitMQ 2.2.0-1

Are there any docs that describe debugging techniques for those of us that
have no Erlang experience?   I'm not even sure what to kill -9 if I had to.
