When I do ps -ef, I see a mysterious process:
ps -ef|grep scsi_eh_5
root 31004 11 0 09:29 ? 00:00:00 [scsi_eh_5]
How do I figure out what is really running, what rpm its from, etc.? What do the brackets [...] indicate?
I suspect this has to do with a USB drive I have plugged in (because I have no scsi anything).
Thanks,
Dave
Some feeble attempts at understanding:
which scsi_eh_5
/usr/bin/which: no scsi_eh_5 in (/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
[root@...~]# lsof|grep -e scsi_eh_5 -e 31004
