    I have a Web Hosting company based on a DE VPS . Last 2 days , the server load was going too high . I was doubting that if any of my user would have installed any Illegal scripts that would have caused this problem ..

    How to detect these scripts that take a lot of memory in my VPS ?

    Note: I Use cPanel/WHM & SolumVPS

    If you have WHM then you can go to View Bandwidth Usage under Account Information and check out any account that looks innormal or has high bandwidth then go to the site and check it out, if it is illegal then you can pull it down

    In WHM there is an option to view cpu/memory utilization for each account, that will show you where the problem is

    Hello there,

    Could be many things. An account with a buggy script, or, someone abusing the email server. Use your 'top -c' command through ssh to monitor processes, and use 'ps aux' to check to see if anything out of the ordinary is running.

    I don't get it ..if you are on reseller account you should see all your users separately. VPS takes care itself about the memory and CPU resource consumption and notifies you exactly which user is overloading the system. Maybe the hosting is not right :) Its usually not the script in question
