I am trying to nail down what is happening on a server and hopefully a
solution.
It seems that as I monitor CPU usage over time that there is a pattern
to the load in a approx 2-week cycle. Things are pretty flat for a week
(after a reboot), then start ramping up over about a week until load ave
on the machine makes it unstable and requiring a reboot.
Sometimes the load on this thing hits in the high 40's, but typically
runs around at 2-4.
Looking at output of ps or top don't seem to show, at least to me, what
process or processes is being a bad boy.
The only plan I have at the moment is to wait for a reboot (anticipate
one tonight if allowed), output ps to a file, then wait for the next
time and ps again to see a comparison.
I'd love to hear from someone how to diagnose this issue. Next SAO
meeting the beers on me if someone can help me out! <g>
