Suddenly, the disk drive begins to run and for quite a while even though I have not issued any I/O. Using ps command, I see a command "find /usr -xdev -" is running. What is this command for? Who is running it? Is there a way to find out these info? Thanks. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
