Tracking Down Load
May 13, 2008
I have a CentOS box here that is causing some strange load. Brand new X3230 (4*2.66Ghz), 2GB ram and 2*500GB SATA2 in raid-1 on a LSI MegaIDE controller.
Basically the server is continuesly at a load of 1. However I dont see why. No CPU load, and no IO as far as I can see. Does anybody have a tip where to look for the problem?

With the WHT benchmark test the machine scores about 520 points, seems not bad either.
Only thing I could think of is that it has something to do with the raidcard. The data transfer rate is quite low. Could it be that the card is rebuilding the array? Can I check that without rebooting?

A user is running something that eats up all the server memory very quickly. Looking at the access logs this is all I get:
XX.XX.XX.XX - - [22/Mar/2007:12:58:06 -0400] "GET /index2.php?option=com_rss&feed=RSS1.0&no_html=1 HTTP/1.1" 403 -
XX.XX.XX.XX- - [22/Mar/2007:12:58:47 -0400] "GET /index2.php?option=com_rss&feed=RSS1.0&no_html=1 HTTP/1.1" 403 -
XX.XX.XX.XX - - [22/Mar/2007:12:58:58 -0400] "GET /index2.php?option=com_rss&feed=RSS1.0&no_html=1 HTTP/1.1" 403 -
Now there are quite a few index2.php's located on my server so I can not figure out who is running this. When I run ps ax -o pid,user,rss,command|grep httpd
I get about 20-30 of these:
13808 nobody 17360 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -DSSL
how I can figure out where this script is being run from?

software for tracking the bandwidth usage on servers? It would be nice if there is one that has a web interface and the ability to add multiple different servers for tracking. Looking for something that runs on Linux (CentOS in particular).

I just finished an information website and my corporation is now asking if there's a way to track the most popular pages on the site. Is there a way to do this with a pre-built function in MySQL or will we need to build a module? I have no experience working with MySQL or ASP.NET; as a purely client-side designer I want to be able to help but I'm at my limit.

Recently, there are a lot of "apache" processes hogging my Cpanel server with the default owner "nobody". How could I track the apache process back to which user is using it?

I have Awstats on my server enabled for:
Nokia Browser (PDA/Phone Browser)
UP.Browser (PDA/Phone Browser)
Motorola Browser (PDA/Phone Browser)
My question is, are the visitors a day accurate - which I take to be uniques. It seems these must be pretty far off.
Presently they show an extremely high multiple of that for pages/s (approx 30 -50 times the visitors). I've never heard of visitors clicking this many pages.
I've not come across these kind of number with other non-mobile sites and it makes wonder if its right.
A) is tracking handled in the same way on mobile devices as on desktops (cookies or sessions?) And is this reliable for mobile/handheld/cell-phone devices?
B) There really isn't much of a chance of these page views being a result of bookmarks - the page views don't seem to add up to this.
The 'Browser Top 10' hits coming from 'unknown' are > 50% of the total amount.
Are there any quirks with awstats or other tracking software when it comes to mobile devices, even though the activity is taking place on the server? I take it Urchin may be more accurate?

I am using Yahoo Webservice API.
[url]
Recently I found out that I often hit the 5000 search per day limit.
I think I found a way to track usage of my Application ID with it. I want to know which IP has been using my APPID, for example.
However, I forget how.
Is this possible?

My company is just getting into web hosting. We currently have 10-15 sites that we are hosting. What do you guys use to keep track of all the details for the site (location, company info, etc). We're using a homegrown filemaker database atm, but we don't want to continue using this when we get 50+ sites. It doesn't matter if its web-based or a standalone program.

We need to add visitor tracking code to the Control panel so we know who's using it and we can prompt inline chat etc. for support, but where to start.
The code is a mixture of Div tags and Java script.
How we can add this as there is no common footer file to drop the code in to.

I've been having trouble with my VPS for a while now. In the QoS alerts page in Virtuozzo it seems to be a problem with numtcpsock and tcprcvbuf, mainly numtcpsock.
Copy these into the browser:
i18.photobucket.com/albums/b106/gnatfish/qosnumtcpsock2.jpg
And when i run cat /proc/user_beancounters:
i18.photobucket.com/albums/b106/gnatfish/beancounters2.jpg
This line is particularly scary:
numtcpsock 164 164 166 166 7321
What do i need to do, to get the website running again? It's only one site on the vps a proxy. So i thought a vps would be able to handle one proxy.

Anyone know of some good server load testers ( commercial )?
Im not looking for application based load testing, I need real web server load testing... need to see how much traffic this one site can take before it cries.

I'm having the oddest issue. For some reason, some of the websites on my server load fine, and some take a really long time to load (2 minutes).
Now, the server load is fine, and the size of the sites aren't the issue either. I've restarted Apache and a couple more services, and still the same sites seem to load very slow.
What could be causing this since it's only effecting certain websites?

I would like to know how to check load via ssh and check files causing load?
I want the ssh codes for 2 different set of control panels, one with cpanel+whm and other with kloxo+hypervm
and I would also know how to check the files causing the load, such as some files could have been interrupted while processing, so they could be causing load some times, so I want to stop such processes if any are running on the vps on my friends accounts

I just got a futurehosting VPS recently and something is puzzling me. Is it normal that an idle CPanel virtuozzo VPS that has no sites on it should display "top" loads of between 1 and 4 regularly? I've been watching the load for a bit now and it keeps jumping between 0-4. When it goes 1 or above, the WHM panel becomes really slow, timing out... They seem to use a beast 8 core machine, so it would take some activity to cause even a 1 load..
I do not have much knowledge about VPS hosting, on a dedicated I would expect the loads to stay 0-0.2 at this point... Is the 1-4 load showing the result of heavy usage by other VPS users on the node? There is absolutely nothing that could cause a load in my vps as far as I see... Is this perfectly normal on any VPS?

You think this is funny? Not at all.
I'm on LON03 server and I recive yesterday from Future Hosting this advise about hight load.
I got then 1 month ago, and the solution was *JUST* to remove a phpBB website with 80+ users.
I do not believe that the VPS could get this kind of loads.
Funny is that the VPS was "monitored" by them at the same time. They say the load spikes out for times to times in a matter of seconds.
This load is taken from the Parallels Infrastructure Panel or even the Node Panel, not from the VSP itself. Even when I'm logged in.
I've been a client for 6 month, and 2 of the last 3 constantly getting CPU hight usage. Strange is, that I come from a 512mb/25gb PowerVPS server to a 1GB/30GB server, with the *SAME* sites.
Anyway, the prupose of this topic is to:
- check if anyone had this problem (problem is: beeing sure that this load is IMPOSSIBLE to be created from yout service)
- recommend a decent VPS provider besides Future Hosting and PowerVPS.

to know the load shown when doing a 'uptime' command is just for my VPS or the entire node?
what is the acceptable average load?
cos for mine, i see most the time is less than 1, but at times, for no particular reason that i know of, it can go up to between 5~10

Due to high IO load server is going crash once a day.
I have optimized the MySQL, Upgraded the kernel but still it's same. The SWAP seems normal.
Now probably it is due to high traffic of http or emails. How should I diagnose and fix it? I am in big trouble.
Its PIV 3.0, 1GB Ram and 450 Websites

I want to have a fail over for my server. I was told that load balancing is the way to go.
Could anyone give me some instructions of what I would require. My primary server contains Cpanel.

the loads on my server is VERY HIGH and it needs to be upgraded fast.
I really have no clue as what to do... and i do not know any expert other than you people here - to help me out and put me on the right track.
i was thinking of
1) Getting a server with better CPU and more RAM
2) Load Balancing
However I know nothing of load balancing (other than how to spell it correctly )
1) Which of the above two options should i choose?
2) what are the extra costs in load balancing?
3) what should i know about load balancing before deciding?
4) How does load balancing work? I know there are two server - like one for database and one as webserver... but how does this work together?
5) what config should i be looking at in the two servers?
I'll stop here else i can go on and on and on...
I am giving the details of my server and service below, in case you guys need it.

We host a large number of small websites and are looking for high-availability and the ability to do maintenance on our application servers, so I'm looking for a load balancing solution. At this point, I'm considering Zeus ZXTM LB software, the Coyote Point e350si, and potentially an F5 1500 LTM.
The F5 solution is a total budget buster, and the Coyote Point UI is rough around the edges, but I've used them and they are reliable. Zeus looks like a winner with a great UI, but I haven't heard much about their reliability.
Bandwidth requirements are low at this point, so this is mostly about reliability and ease of configuration of a moderately complex set of services.
Any opinions on these vendors, or alternates I should consider?
