Cloudera Agent deploying wrong configuration

rafaelpecin — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 10:24:59 GMT

Hi,

I'm facing problems when I change the configuration of any service via CM, because the deployed instance at /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process is aways created with the old configuration.

I have already tried `service cloudera-scm-agent clean_restart_confirmed` before to deploy the client configuration, but with no effect. The new path with the necessary files are aways with outdated configuration.

I rebooted the machine, but the problem persists.

What more should I do?

[Solved]
It was necessary to stop all roles running at the server.
kill -9 on some remaining process (sudo lsof +d /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process showed these processes)
I download the cloudera-scm-agent from its mirror (respecting my scenarios version)
Executed:
sudo service cloudera-scm-agent stop
sudo umount /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process

Reinstalled the cloudera-scm-agent package and executed:
sudo service cloudera-scm-agent clean_restart

This solved the issue.

Obs.: Some roles where unpacked at var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process with corrupted files (e.g.. hue.ini with +8GB size and the dir path repeated many many times into it's content)
