Feb 17, 2008Probably an easy question and I am just not seeing it, but how do you set which email address you want CSF alerts sent to?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHandling CSF Mail Alerts
Nov 5, 2009We have about 100 servers using CSF, and CSF is generating A LOT of mail alerts.. which is causing us to receive over 1000 mails daily, just from CSF alerts.. this doesn't include support emails or others.
My question..
How do you handle mail alerts when you have lot of servers? See... i can not waste 5 hours reading every mail.. even if I start deleting those mails a lot of important and critical alerts can be erased in the process..
How do you filter or handle this kind of things?
NUMPROC Black Alerts On VPS
Feb 12, 2007I have started having daily numproc black alerts on my VPS. Tech Support have increased the numproc limit already to 1500 but say that I will need a dedicated server, that's the last I have heard. I'd like to know if there is anything I can do to limit this numproc problem without the need to get a dedicated server. The numproc alerts seem to be getting more frequent but the visitors to the site are not increasing. Here are the details:
2 x AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244, 904.127 MHz, cache size: 1024 KB
Linux 2.6.8-022stab078.21-enterprise #1
Apache/1.3.36 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.4.2 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.27 OpenSSL/0.9.7a
Cpanel
Only one site is hosted on the VPS. Includes phpbb forum & various php / mysql sections like an affiliate store & photo gallery. Averaging about 11000 visitors/day
I tried to run /proc/user_beancounters & ps axv commands when the numproc was maxed this morning but could not log in to run it so these are the ones I ran yesterday.

Monit + Qmail Alerts Doesnt Work
May 9, 2007I configured monit to send me email alerts when apache is using too many resources but I cannot receive email alerts. I use Qmail.
As for syslog, there is this message:
monit[6473]: Sendmail: error receiving data from the mailserver 'localhost' -- Resource temporarily unavailable
I tried to add for server name the name used in MX record but with the same result.
Btw: other things configured in cron (eg. RKHUNTER) send me alerts OK.
QOS Alerts And Sites Running Slow On Occasion
Jul 5, 2008My sites have been receiving a little more traffic these days (but not too much) and it seems my vps is slowing and at times vbulletin/wordpress page doesn't loads or loads a bit sluggishly (refreshing the page gets rids of not loading issue but not sluggishness).
So I logged into Virtozzo and saw the following QOS alerts:

I have previously seen tcpsndbuf going into yellow and even black zone (but only once in a blue moon) however never saw kemsize going into black zone.
These are the limits my host has set:
IDCurrent UseSoft LimitHard LimitUnits
tcpsndbuf301,8602,580,4804,055,040bytes
kmemsize9,135,28929,614,08030,474,240bytes
othersockbuf17,8881,689,1203,145,728bytes
My Cpanel VPS has around 384MB of dedicated ram and around 896Mb of burst Ram. At any given time, there is at least 150Mb of free dedicated RAM. So based on this, are these values correct or they need to be changed or do I need to look for something else which might be causing this problem?
I don't run Spamassassin

Server Monitoring - Siteuptime Starting To Give False Alerts
Jun 26, 2008Being using the free version of siteuptime.com but this month alone i have had so far 3 false alerts reported, i am always in the putty and does not get interrupted, and i am sure i am around on the site too while supposedly siteuptime reports down (i am guessing firewall blocks their server ip for w/e reason). So am wondering is there any really good public tracking site out there which can do public reports more accurately and not kak out on me?
Whats your experience with siteuptime for monitoring if any ? Sometimes it works "ok" other times its just off the charts.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Server Health Emailed Alerts / Alarms
Apr 22, 2015I keep receiving emailed alerts with subject like:
"<server name> alarm level changed"
with content like:
Server health parameter "Memory > Real memory usage" changed its status from "green" to "yellow".
or
Server health parameter "Services > Apache CPU usage" changed its status from "red" to "yellow".
(and then a readout of the top command)
1) Where in Plesk can I see live alerts (or a historical log of these alerts)
2) Where can I change the settings (I think it may be too sensitive and the thresholds need to be adjusted)
3) I don't quite understand the alerts in general either, for example, the "Memory > Real memory usage", the TOP command output is for example:
top - 12:19:59 up 4:56, 1 user, load average: 0.21, 0.21, 0.21
Tasks: 255 total, 1 running, 254 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 5.5%us, 0.7%sy, 0.2%ni, 92.8%id, 0.8%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.1%si, 0.0%st
Mem: 5967176k total, 2539756k used, 3427420k free, 134972k buffers
Swap: 4194300k total, 788k used, 4193512k free, 664916k cached
More than half the memory is unused, very little swap is in use. I don't even see a reason to be warning about this.

8 Apache Process
Mar 17, 2008Ive recently installed installed and configured stuff on my new box but after, I realised abnormal memory usage.
Mysql server is taking 256mb, there are somewhere between 6 and 10 apache process taking up at least 40mb each.
Furthermore, when I do: top, I see that the memory usage is increasing by about 120ko each 3 sec.
I am running centos 5.1 and have a load of 0. Basically, there is no one on the server appart from me.
On the server I have at home running debian, I run all thoose thing and it take up 200mb
max.

Business Process
May 13, 2008I'd like to put up here a base question which I hope some will have the goodwill to answer even though it might touch some business secrecies.
We're a gameserver hoster since around ten years, running also vserver products since over two years now. Renting a few Racks in Europe since some time we're a bit in a question mark how rootserver companies deal with the initial hardware costs for every new customer.
Rackspace and today specially power costs are huge cash eaters here in Europe. Dedicated Rootservers are huge space & power consumers per customer ratio. The initial Hw costs for every new rootserver customer might be covered after 4-6 months (if the machine has to be bought newly), adding the bandwidth and power costs it might take up to 8-9 months until a benefit might come in.
Is this the business normality in the rootserver market (waiting 9 months for any benefit, or counting only on the benefit of the 2nd customer using the older Hw), or are the better ways to handle those "initial" costs or keep them affordably low?

Frozen Process
Nov 15, 2007My hosting company is telling me that I have getting frozen processes on my VPS that is causing apache to stop responding.
My VPS is CentOS, with 512 megs of memory and my website is a Vbulletin forum. I have several add-ons installed on vbulletin, and if one of those are causing the problem, how do I figure it out?
When http stops responding, I can access the server with putty on ssh. Running the "top" command, it shows that I still have 100+ megs of memory free and the processor is barely being used.
This has happened twice in just 2 - 3 days. This morning, I asked my hosting company what can be causing this, but no answer so far.
Process Using High CPU
Sep 4, 2007I run a dedicated server, Running
CentOS 4.5 final
Apache 2.0.59
php 4.3.11
MySQL 4.1.20
I have a user who has been importing large sql databases and this causes the cpu to run at 80% - 90% this in turn causes high loads and sometimes causing the server to crash.
Is there a way to automatically limit or control how much the process can use or stop the process to allow the server to recover.
Just trying to put some sort of safe guard in place

How To Watch/trace A Process?
Jul 19, 2008I can't remember the name of the utility that lets you watch what a process is doing. You call it on a PID and you can see all the memory allocations, file IO, library loading, etc. that the process is doing as it happens. Anyone know what I'm thinking of?
