Why I hate unicenter

Everyone vaunts those enterprise management software suites which consumes horrendous amounts of disk and memory yet we have to put it on every *****ing server...sigh...my poor unix boxes.

Anyways, today I get a call from Ops saying "Unicenter's using up one of the procs entirely, can you look at it?". I go look and see this:


Memory: 344772K (214292K) real, 1526852K (1344436K) virtual, 60556K free Page# 1/9

CPU TTY PID USERNAME PRI NI SIZE RES STATE TIME %WCPU %CPU COMMAND
3 ? 3740 root 241 20 1031M 180K run 2796:02 93.02 92.86 oprsafd


The oprsafd is some daemon used by CA Unicenter and this bastard of a process has been alive for 2796 minutes (over 40 hours) and has consumed/locked/chewed through *ONE GIG* of memory...

I hate unicenter....bash trash loot and sack!

I hate Hands On Technology Transfer (www.traininghott.com) they screwed me over on the same C++ class 7 or 8 times now, and will not refund my $1795. (all I get is) "We will let you know when we schedule the next meeting in your area". They have cancelled the previous 7 or 8, so whats to make me think the next one will go on?

Not to mention it basically makes your computer look like it has been trojaned if you install the whole suite...Gotta love invasive software...
