Re: Performance issue as ARServed takes 100% CPU utilization

Look for code that is running away or overly ambitious:

- Active links that run on an interval that do massive queries
- Escalations that do massive updates running during prime time
- Code that trips a filter that trips a filter that trips a filter that
does massive updates

Check your logs to see what's going on during those peak CPU utilization
times.

Importance: High

Hello List,

We have been observing that, when ARServed process reaches to 100% CPU
utilization, system performance get degraded drastically.
Even if system still has another CPU available means in total it's 50%
utilized. This results into when user even couldn't login.

Please advice how I can unblock the situation.

Regards
Manish

So this is a one proc box?
How much memory?
How many users access the system, total, and contiguous?
What OS?  32 or 64 bit?
What DB?
What version of Remedy?
What did the compatibility matrix say?

The cpu utilization tells you the process is busy doing something, the real
questions is, What is the process doing?  Turn on your api logs and check
it out.  There are some operations that block, which would explain it being
bound to a single cpu.  What is the cache mode of the server?

Re: Performance issue as ARServed takes 100% CPU utilization

2009-07-17 Thread patrick zandi
I have seen an older version of Email engine do this? in the configuration
it was set to 1,
1 should be minutes, but I remember there were versions that this was
Seconds instead..
And so then I was seeing polling to the SMTP server several times a second,
causing CPU spike.

Turning on admin panel, turning on server events can cause CPU hit's that
would bring it up, Especially if the server cannot handle in the first place
(slow server - old)...

Hope those help.. have a great day.
