Hi All,
A quick question for those out there with WISMs... What level of
CPU usage are you experiencing (with how many users)?
A bit of background...
We have two wism blades (4 wisms) and since we purchased them in
about april'07 they were running at about 35%, rising to 50% at peak
times, with frequent spikes up to about 90%. The spikes were
worrying, but the average seemed ok, and as they did this from day
one I was under the impression this was the norm.
Recently, we upgraded to the 4.2.x.y stream from 4.1. As has been
covered in other recent posts, 4.2 has some outstanding issues (more
than others anyway) and things became unstable... so we decided to go
back to 4.1.85.0 (TAC hasn't provided us with any solutions for 4.2
issues). We had a backup of our previous 4.1 config, but I chose not
to use it and start again from scratch (a few things had changed, so
either way involved work)
Since the reversion to 4.1.85.0, our cpu usage now averages 2% and
peaks at 6% at peak times (220 waps, ~350 users).
[4.1.85.0, 12.2(18)SXF7]
Thanks,
James
