summary: You're massively over provisioned, +100%

resolution:
1. Reconfigured your VMs to use a single vcpu and cap your available vcpus to 8,
   even less considering that more than half of your applications are IO bound.
2. the software raid can be a choke point for all application progress,
   virtual or otherwise; it needs CPU time too.

remarks:
you have a test setup, treat it as such, 19 vcpus is overboard.

Sorry for disturbing again,

after the restart I've seen that I'm unable to ssh to VM since on login they 
run byobu which now hangs (never did on VM).

I managed to ctrl-c fast enough to don't start byobu and an strace on it gave 
me this:

Hi Eduardo

Thank you for the tips.

I'll wait a few days and let you know when this happens again.

About the load, system cpu wasn't more then 10% used from top, io wait was at 
2% most of the time.

We've 4 x 2 (HT) cores on the server and a total number of 19 vcpu allocated on 
VM running on that host.

Vm runs mostly nginx+php-fpm+mysql, one runs also rabbitMQ and a python 
rabbitMQ consumer.

I'll let you know later then.

Thanks again!

Best

Hi Alessandro,

Thanks for the information.

The sysrq-t that I requested is *only* useful during the problem. Please
do that when you encounter the problem again.

It may be that you are overcommitting cpus on your system by having many
virtual machines running on the nova controller node. This is a
completely wild guess, but I would recommend you to look at how many
cpus you have and how many virtual machines and if you have any
processes in real time or sched FIFO.

Cheers,
Eduardo.
