Thanks a lot for your quick reply. 1. I'm not sure if it's a memory leak issue because we have restarted the services and restarted the master machine already. ( have also increased RAM from 16GB to 32GB + 1 core to 2 cores ) 2. Splay time is also set to 180 seconds.
Waiting for any other pointers. -Harish On Monday, December 12, 2016 at 10:14:10 PM UTC+5:30, Dirk Heinrichs wrote: > > Am 12.12.2016 um 17:34 schrieb Harish Kothuri: > > I have a puppet master v3.8.7 and having 300+ nodes running fine till last > week. > > All the agents are running very slow since last week and sometimes it > started complaining that puppet master is running on heavy load. > > > Two possible reasons come to my mind: > > 1.
