[cobalt-users] [Qube 2] Problem with cpu ... glimpseindex

[Malcolm McLeary <mmcleary@xxxxxxx>]

Guys,

I have a Qube 2 which has just sent the following;

> The CPU in the Cobalt server is overloaded; it is attempting to do too many
> things at the same time.  An amber light means that there are 3 times as many
> tasks waiting to be executed as are actually running, and a red light means

I think the likely "problem" is the following process;

USER       PID %CPU %MEM  SIZE   RSS TTY STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root     19216 56.4  3.1  7764  2004  ?  R   01:02 266:18 (glimpseindex)

Can I just kill it?

The "search" feature is not used at all on this Qube.

How can I disable it permanently or is it needed for something else?

If I can't disable it, can I restrict its "index" to just /home/groups/home
instead of the what is probably /home?

Cheers,  Malcolm
