Hi Guys,

I started a batch of scanning tasks. They are 105 tasks. Most of them, 91 tasks are successfully done in Done status, but others are not. 11 tasks are always in Requested, 2 in Running and 1 in Queued for more than 3 hours. What’s wrong?

GVM versions

gsad: (‘gsad --version’) 21.4.3
gvmd: (‘gvmd --version’) 21.4.4
openvas-scanner: (‘openvas --version’, in older GVM versions < 11: ‘openvassd --version’) 21.4.3
gvm-libs: 21.11.0

Environment

Operating system: Ubuntu
Kernel: (‘uname -a’) Linux gvm-gvmd-7c6fd8dfb9-sfhgj 3.10.0-862.14.1.5.h520.eulerosv2r7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Nov 25 18:33:06 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Installation method / source: source

This looks like a weired mixture of component versions which could cause an undefined behavior / state of GVM.

Please make sure that you are using the most recent 21.4.4 version for all GVM components announced via GVM Release Version 21.4.4 - Greenbone Community Edition - Greenbone Community Forum to avoid that the problem is caused by the mixture of component versions.
