NW Server: 7.4.4.Build.634 Network Edition/444
OS: SuSe 8 ia64

I have a problem with networker server being flooded with zombie processes from 'nsrd' process. Anyone ever had this problem before?

It began to show after we added a storage node (though might be different cause than that since I was on vacation during this time).

The zombie processes will disappear if NetWorker is shutdown.
