Pigz - Gzip Recurring Email Notices

Beginning yesterday, last day of month, I started getting 'Excessive Resource Usage' emails every hour or so. I thought this process was compressing and zipping up logs etc and just taking extra time, but it is continuing today also. There are 2 types of emails each hour: Resource: Process Time Exceeded: 54110 > 1800 (seconds) Executable: /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/pigz Command Line: /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/pigz -6 --processes 1 --blocksize 4096 --rsyncable PID: 3454 (Parent PID:3453) Killed: No Resource: Process Time Exceeded: 54110 > 1800 (seconds) Executable: /usr/bin/tar Command Line: /usr/bin/gtar --create --blocking-factor=200 --file - --use-compress-program=/usr/local/cpanel/bin/gzip-wrapper . PID: 3453 (Parent PID:3413) Killed: No Is this normal? Or, is a process stuck and do I need to adjust any settings? Thank you for any help.

  I think it's a stucked process. 54k secs is around 15 hours. You could take a look what PID 3413 and see which process uses pigz and tar :-)

  This is a notification from the 3rd party firewall software CSF/LFD - the report is for executables being used in association with the backup process. You can confirm whether or not the process is stuck by checking the cPanel backup logs at /usr/local/cpanel/logs/cpabackup
