RE: Crashing TUX

Hi William,

Thanks for the reply. The only thing that is running on that machine is t=
ux
(and apache as a RPC server). No cronjobs heavy cronjobs.

When the problem occurs I'll run that command you suggested.

Euhm, actually I'm running Debian 3.1, but I don't think that should be t=
he
problem.

Thanks,
Nicolas Van Eenaeme

Hi Nicolas,

Are you sure your load problems are about tux? Did you checked your cron
jobs? may be it's logrotate or something like that.  When the load is
that high you can log into the system and execute this command:
	ps aux | grep ' [DRZ]'

All of the processes with state D or R are the ones generating the high
load, with this information you can identify the offending processes.

BTW, what distro and version are you using?  Right now I have a lot of
experience with Fedora Core 3.
