to decrease the load in server when daily backup start ,, the load in server before backup start from 0.80 to 1.20 after daily backup started i see very high load from 16.00 to 32 and 40
any solve for decrease load when backup start from 3 to 7 alot
I have my WHM/cPanel installation configured with daily and weekly backups. I checked at what time of the day the server load was at the minimum and configured the cPanel backup cron to run then.
The problem now is: Backing up a few hundred accounts results in a high server load. My server configuration:
Dual Processor Quad Core Xeon 5335 2.0GHz with 4GB RAM and 2 x 250GB SATA HDD hosted at SoftLayer.
The accounts are located on the first HDD and the backup archives are placed on the second HDD.
What can I do about this? I'd like to take daily backups of all accounts but not if my server load increases up to 10... That kind of renders the cPanel backup feature useless if it doesn't even work on a powerful server like this one...
Would it help if I use an application such as Auto Nice Daemon to give the backup process a lower priority? But then again that won't work on the MySQL dumps? And I think it's not a CPU problem but an I/O wait problem? Other processes have to wait for disk access because the disk-intensive backup process is running?
i have a really high load (100!) at backup time
i'm using cPanel and i'm using Incremental backup option!
is there any solution?
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE
Parallels Plesk Panel 11.5.30 MU #44 CentOS 6.5 (Final) 64bit
2 of our our servers are suddenly experiencing high Wait I/O Times, and high Load Averages during the backup process. During this period the Plesk grinds to a halt, sometimes crashing out completely (although SSh is still possible. We have been in talks with our server suppliers (assuming this would be node related) however they have done a lot of testing etc. and categorically state the node is fine , with no other users affecting it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE : We backup the server using the scheduled backup service and Wait I/O immediately goes up.
ACTUAL RESULT: Plesk downtime / Website downtime
EXPECTED RESULT: No downtime, successful back up
Some other info :
All other processes (MYSQL, apache, Nginx etc) are all running between 1 - 10%
Partition "/usr" utilization 4.2% used (1.81 GB of 43.3 GB) (?)
Partition "/var" utilization 50.6% used (61.8 GB of 122 GB) (?)
We are struggling to identify what has changed on the server that would cause this sudden change.
customer of HostV's VPS hosting, and for the past 3 days, at almost exactly 01:20 GMT, CPU load jumps from an average of about 0.10 to 2.5+, stays there for over an hour, then drops back down.
During this time, there are NO processes on my virtual server using any significant amount of CPU time, memory, or IO. No cron jobs are running on my server, etc.
Note the output from 'uptime' below (I was monitoring it waiting for the problem to occur, which it did at exactly the time I expected):
00:32:05 up 22:01, 2 users, load average: 0.09, 0.11, 0.08
00:32:07 up 22:01, 2 users, load average: 0.08, 0.11, 0.08
01:09:49 up 22:39, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.03, 0.00
01:10:03 up 22:39, 2 users, load average: 0.05, 0.03, 0.00
01:19:26 up 22:48, 2 users, load average: 0.46, 0.16, 0.04
01:20:42 up 22:50, 2 users, load average: 1.53, 0.55, 0.18
01:21:39 up 22:51, 2 users, load average: 1.40, 0.67, 0.24
01:46:04 up 23:15, 2 users, load average: 3.06, 2.02, 1.52
Also note output from 'top', taken when load average was at 3.06 shown on the last line above:
Cpu(s): 0.1% us, 0.0% sy, 0.0% ni, 91.0% id, 9.0% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si
My cpu usage is very low (0.1%) but wait time is at 9.0%, and I've seen this go as high as 70% during these times.
So, basically, there is a problem that exists on the host node somewhere that is causing my site to become effectively unresponsive (page load 20 seconds+ - measured), and it happens every single day at the same time.
So, why am I posting it here instead of logging a trouble ticket? I have logged a trouble ticket, but when I encountered the problem yesterday, despite logging it as "CRITICAL", I had to wait nearly 5 hours for a response, which effectively said not much beyond "we noticed the problem and fixed it and we're monitoring it". So I don't have a lot of faith that today's response will be any better.
I moved to HostV because of similar problems I was encountering with shared hosting, and was assured before signing up that the kind of problem I'm seeing doesn't happen. So now I'm outlaying more than 10 times the cost for almost exactly the same problems and a similarly unhelpful response to it.
By publicly posting the problem, I would hope that someone at HostV will ensure the problem is addressed PROPERLY, rather than bandaided again, and that hopefully we will all be able to see just how good HostV's support CAN be (as evidenced in another similar post).
I await HostV/Cirtex's response.
As shown in the uptime information about, server uptime is 23:15, because I rebooted the virtual server yesterday to see if that helped. It didn't. In fact, it took over 20 minutes for the server to come back up, which is why I'm not going to do it again.
I have a cPanel server with 4GB RAM
My server hangs time to time, once or twice a day. This is the last status when it happens.
Server Load 75.90 (2 cpus)
Memory Used 92 %
Swap Used 65.78 %
When I was still inside SSH when it happens, the processes I can see inside "top" are a lot of httpd processes.
So I "killall -9 httpd", I had to do it 30~40 times
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
x 30~40 times until no pid process found & the server load is back to normal.
Before that, I check httpd fullstatus, they look very normal, same goes to what I see inside WHM Apache status & cpu usage status.
At first I thought it was a memory problem after consulting with a server admin, so I replaced all 4GB new ram stick (such a waste)
My server is very slow, High CPU, High Apache load....
I got a new server and i had setup a script on it.
No server tweaks has been done.
I run a filehosting site so it gets very slow when traffic is high.

I dont know much about server managment...
how to fix this so server doesnt go slow?
I have a site that is eating up my server resources and need to know what the best solution for this is. I'm thinking of getting another server just for mysql but do not know what specs the server should be to handle the current traffic/database load and have the site run smoothly without slowing down to a snail's pace.
An alternative is to get another server just for the videos being served and leave the database and html on the current server. This is where I'm stuck and don't know what route to take with this.
My current server stats:
Dual Xeon 5130
4GB RAM
250GB
50 Mbit/sec
CentOS 3.9
Website traffic stats:
15,000 visitors/day
150,000 pageviews/day
Serving videos
I've attached screenshots of top and bandwidth usage per day. Hopefully with this information you could tell me if I need another server or if there are any things I can do to the current server to help things move faster.
i want to run /scripts/cpbackup every day begain with 12:00 AM and i put this line in /tmp/crontab.XXXXwuxGUI File

I have seen resellerzoom provides daily full backup to their customer. How should i configure my WHM so that it create daily backup and delete old backup.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat type of backup do you use with your host? (daily, nightly, incremental, etc)
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am running in a High load problem lately. I have one of those cheap 1and1 servers which was running fine until 2 weeks ago. Once I rebooted accidentaly, it did not come back with some unrepairable kernel errors and I had to re-image it.
I chose to reimage the server with CentOS 5, for better support. The new re-image worked fine for some days, at least so I thought and now I am having high loads. The server crashes if not monitored every moment as the load is unpredictable.
Just a restart of the Apache will bring the server back to normality, but I am not sure if it is apache or some other script to be blamed.
I have beeing monitoring through apache server-status, but I cannot organize something unusual in the high load moments.

So my server is "unresponsive" for abour 18 hours, burst net didnt answer my tickets and I dont know what to do. Ive been with this setup for almost 5 months with no problems, No changes have been made to hardware or software.
Im using Centos 5.0
i just wana know is it safe to do remote daily backup for about 70,000 files?
file sizes is about 200kb and every day i have about 1000 new file, so rsync first should check old files becouse i am deleting about 30-50 of them daily and them backup new 1000 files ,
so how much it will take every time to compare that 70,000 files?
i have 2 option now:
1-using second hdd and raid 1
2-using rsync and backuping to my second server , so i can save about $70 each month.
Is there any way to create a cron to backup mysql data daily ( or weekly )? I mean an "auto script" to run this command daily
mysqldump -u usernam -p password dataname > file.sql
I'm new to Parallels Panel. I use version 11.0.9. I want to backup mysql database daily. First of all, what is the best way for daily database backup in plesk. I'm trying to do this in Scheduled Tasks and I use mysqldump command although I'm not sure.
I chose the time and day first and then I switched on the task. I typed the following command to Command line.
mysqldump -uusername -ppassword databasename | gzip -9 >/httpdocs/mydatabase.sql.gz
or
mysqldump -uusername -ppassword databasename >/httpdocs/mydatabase.sql.gz
This created only a blank file. When I use this without gzip, nothing changes.
1- Is mysqldump right command for database backup?
2- Should I define full path for mysqldump, gzip and database? If so, how can I find out the full path of mysqldump, gzip and my database? Because I can't see their locations in panel.
3- I can't see any error message. There is not any log file in httpdocs folder. Where does the log file exist?
4- It is weird but should the username be "database user" or should I write "root" ?

Every night, from around 1.30am, the load suddenly skyrockets and will usually be around 5 to 10 for a few hours. Occasionally it'll spike to 30+ for a few minutes.
I had some antispam software running, and a couple of other packages (mail queues, mail manage etc), so I disabled all of that and removed all the crontab entries etc.
It's not really made any difference.
I can see the load stats going back 8 hours, as part of the ASSP spam package (I've just left the ASSP server load cron running just so I can continue monitoring it!)
Can the apparent load on my VPS be caused by other VPS's on the same node?? So in reality, my load is fine but is being affected by other people's VPS's?
I hope that makes sense. I'm 99% sure that my VPS is 'clean' (in so far as cron entries)
I'm asking the question because I took a second VPS on the same node and that one too has high loads overnight when there's nothing running on it (ie, no add-on software, no Cpanel accounts added)
I have a VPS with LXadmin control panel and 1024 Ram.
the memory always 333-450 but now it is more than 800 and the VPS stopped I restarted it many times but after restarting it the memory gone crazy again.
So, how to know what causes high load and eating my Memory?
when i install BFD and APF on my server thie processes appears every time on "top" commad on my server and it cuse hight load

Just signed up for a VPS with solarvps, which so far is lightning fast compared to my shared reseller account with RZ.
I want to create a script which checks the server load and drops me a text message on my mobile if the server load hits a certain level.
Just wondering what I should consider a high server load?
The server is the JupiterLX UK one from solar vps with over just over 800mb of SLM RAM.
Im in a VPS and everyday at the same hour goes very slowly due to high load problems.
The main site is a vBulletin forum and I get this error:
Too many connections
Ive change some details in my.cnf:
Quote:
max_connections=500
max_user_connections=70
But it didnt solve the problem.
This high load occurs at the same hour, I think that it is a cron job related problem, but this is my /etc/crontab
Quote:
# cat crontab
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
HOME=/
# run-parts
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly
i was previously using maxclients 256 in httpd.conf and the load was normal even when the server was processing 256 requests..
recently i had changed it to 320 coz of which my load had increased a lot.. Now when i have decreased it back to 256 the load is still high even when the no of requests are just 150..
i have trouble with transport from company to another company
and i had problem with the best company ( resellerzoom.com )
i order one month this palnt ( Failover Plans ) then i swa this messeage

How can you tell if your server was a victim of a DDOS attack? Server load goes so high that you cannot get in via SSH, and the server has to be power cycled to get back online. When it comes back online, load goes back up, we shut apache down, and the let the load come back down and then restart apache and everything is fine. Any way to determine what caused the load to skyrocket? System has APF, BFD, and mod_evasive installed.

I am sorry for bad english but i am really get more pain daily with the high load
My server kernel
Linux httpd 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jul 10 06:50:22 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I use CentOS 5 and httpd 1.3 and php 4.4.7
I try to upgrade them to httpd 2.0 and php 5.2.4 but most users can't browse the site so
i come back to 1.3
I have upgraded the kernel, I have optimized the my.cnf (mysql), the swap file is free.
The memory is not overloaded even then the I/O wait is too high, the top result is as below
The server become very very slow due to high I/O load, I am failed to dins out the reason. Please help me with the commands so I can sort it out
