Hope you experts can help me out here.
Basically I have server running at a very high load 2.44, although
nothing is noticably high when using top. There aren't any processes
running on the box except the standard linux OS tools. This box is
used for backup, and only becomes active during the night.
I've looked at these but can't see anything. The server doesn't mount
or export any filesystems using nfs or any other protocol. If it helps
here are the various outputs:
uptime
14:45:49 up 62 days, 43 min, 2 users, load average: 1.46, 1.57, 1.59
Anyone have any ideas. Literally the box is sitting there not doing
anything that has been scheduled.
This happens occassionally then the load spontaneously goes down. Do
you reckon it has something to do with the raid 5?
ps auxw | grep " D "
Hi,
I get the following:
ps auxw | grep " D "
root 15802 0.0 0.1 3688 660 pts/0 S 16:06 0:00 grep D
Run top, and take a look!
Also, cat /proc/mdstat - if you're rebuilding your RAID, it can
suck away CPU cycles.
