ssh zmcontrol start ssh hangs

[yogg1]

Hi

I have a strange problem with my zimbra servers.

zimbra1 (Version: 6.0.1)
zimbra2 (Version: 6.0.2)
zimbra3 (Version: 6.0.3)

ssh zimbra@zimbra1 zmcontrol start

Host zimbra1
	Starting ldap...Done.
	Starting logger...Done.
	Starting mailbox...Done.
	Starting antispam...Done.
	Starting antivirus...Done.
	Starting snmp...Done.
	Starting spell...Done.
	Starting mta...Done.
	Starting stats...Done.

Everything works fine, and after the command the ssh shell closes.

But on the newer zimbra versions
ssh zimbra@zimbra2/3 zmcontrol start

Host zimbra2/3
	Starting ldap...Done.
	Starting logger...Done.
	Starting mailbox...Done.
	Starting antispam...Done.
	Starting antivirus...Done.
	Starting snmp...Done.
	Starting spell...Done.
	Starting mta...Done.
	Starting stats...Done.

After "Starting stats...Done." the ssh shell hangs. If ssh hangs my Backup script hangs -.-

So is this a Bug or a Feature?
And if this is a Bug and/or a Feature how can i solve my problem with the hanging shell?

I have fixed it now with:

ssh zimbra@zimbraserver "zmcontrol start < /dev/null"

But is this behavior normal?

This workaround worked for me, too, but I'd like the problem, whatever it is, fixed "for real"... Thanks for posting the workaround, Yogg1.

If you want this 'problem' fixed then I suggest you file a bug report.
