Hi Myles,
Yes, I believe we actually stopped xinetd first to prevent new connections from being made, then killed existing connections.
When you connect to the database with xinetd stopped you have to connect using the local filesystem path, not the network path.

1. Review all FB processes (ps -ax | grep fbserver) and kill -9 on those2. Shutdown the service of xinetd3. gfix to single user - then do maintenance4. Start xinetd againDoes that sound right to you?Myles
