Troubleshoot dedicated server background processes
| Posted by hostyourdream, 11-09-2014, 05:28 PM |
| Hi
On a dedicated server some times i am getting high cpu load and from top i can't see something that is using a lot of cpu and i think it is something from the system running at this time or maybe a cron (copy command?) ....
How can i check better than top what is doing the server the current time?
Thanks

| Do you have software RAID? It could be the resync process.

| There are numerous troubleshooting tools you can use. Top, htop , mytop are some of them. What are the top processes you see when the issue shows up ?

| Hello,
Could you provide the output of top c? Is the CPU user usage is high OR CPU system usage is high OR is IO wait is high?

| I believe it would be much easier to debug if you could show us what you see during these high CPU usage times in top.
