asked on

server would not shutdown and lots of lsmod procs.... any idea what this is?

I was trying to shut down a Red Hat five server and it still had not shut down by the next day.  I noticed a ton of these lsmod procs.... Not sure if it's related....  It just so happens I was shutting it down to replace the operating system so there is nothing to fix I guess but I'm still curious what this might of been about had this been a server that I needed to continue using.

thanks all!  this was an old server we migrated our app off of, and I was just shutting it down for the last time.  Was just curious what this might be about.  (But can't actually do any troubleshooting, as I just hard-shutdown.
