Recently database-maint.exe has been locking up my NPM. It shuts down the polling engine and then of course I lose valuable stats. I have to go in and kill the process when this happens. I have run repairs on the entire install but this still hasn't helped. I have also even renamed the exe file to an old file and tried the repair hoping to get a new exe file but it didn't happen. Any ideas as to why this is happening or what I can do? I'm wondering if it's getting stuck on one of the db indexes.
