check_reload_status hanging with 100% CPU load

[digitalgimpus]

Noticed my pfsense box running warm this morning. Logged in and noticed:

489 root          1 155   20    13M  2912K CPU1     1 116.9H  99.58% check_reload_status

Everything has been stable/quiet otherwise.

@digitalgimpus said in check_reload_status hanging with 100% CPU load:

116.9H

Any idea what happened 116.9hrs ago to trigger it?

[digitalgimpus]

Nothing in particular. Mostly in "set it and forget it" mode post upgrade.

[stephenw10]

Anything in the logs at that time?

You can likely kill that process and see if it returns.

Nothing in the logs that stands out. I ended up rebooting things and everything is running fine so far.
