My server is running under somewhat sever conditions currently: Server Load 22.21 (1 cpu) Memory Used 82.8 % Swap Used 57.04 % The server is controlled through WHM, is the any part of WHM i can go into to see what is causing the server load?? Any help appreciated
Its probably a mysql load with so many connections at the same time. You can see it at whm via CPU/Memory/MySQL Usage .
ok, i have gone into that part fo WHM, what does this mean User Domain %CPU %MEM MySQL Processes nobody 43.77 55.89 0.0 Top Process %CPU 22.8 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL Top Process %CPU 18.6 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL Top Process %CPU 18.4 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL root 4.13 6.77 1.8 Top Process %CPU 65.5 gzip Top Process %CPU 23.8 gzip Top Process %CPU 20.6 gzip
Hi where do i disable it? i thought it might of been in "Service Manager" but not there, I'm still a bit of a sever admin newbie So where do i disable it from? also what services / sites would it likely to affect?
Which script do you use ? If your script has gzip option then disable it there if not then disable it at php.ini zlib.output_compression = Off also output_buffering = off
It does run automated backups but not during peak/day time. Ive put it down to an old server and have just purchased a dual core dedi box so hopefully no more slow sites
PHP runs as nobody, by default. You should install phpSuExec, or SuPHP so that it runs as a user. You will then have a better understanding of which account on your server is causing the load, apart from the load generated by backups. Please be aware that some scripts may require a few simple modifications, after phpSuExec, or SuPHP is installed. Ishan
check if your server is under a dos attack. You can get the number of total httpd connections that is arriving to your server.
