[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbitmqctl status hangs until I kill all erlang/erts-5.8.5/bin/beam processes

[tenyks]

Hi,

Sometimes I notice on my rabbitmq node that 'rabbitmqctl status' hangs 
without any response. When I do a ps aux | grep erl, I find multiple 
instances of the beam process running. Once I kill all these beam 
processes, and start rabbitmq, it starts up properly. This behavior seems 
to be transient. Has anyone noticed this or know the root cause ?
