Hi guys,

Is there anyway insted of Top and Glance to know why my server is too slow, suddenly it started to get slow and just can't find the answer, Glance and Top don't show me any information, actually, they say that my performance is perfect.

An example, it is takig 4 mins. to load Glance and it used to be only 10 secs.!!!, also does anybody know where log files are stored, this because I think that maybe a log file is too big and that's maybe the reason why this happs.

Any help will be very welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Daniel Buentello

Are u using network file system (netstat)? Did you check the IO ( iostat )? Log files?

Try to use the find / -print -size +100000000c (u got to double check on the command, no unix server around now ).


That should help u to find a big file over 10M etc.
 
Daniel,

How does the system load now compare to the load when the performance was ok?

4 mins to load glance seems excessive - it's not being loaded from a physical disk that's heavily used by something else is it?

Hi.

Plz do this:

sar -A -o sar.log 60 15 #it takes 15.min.

And then:

sar -u -f sar.log > cpu.log
sar -uM -f sar.log > cpum.log
sar -d -f sar.log > disk.log
sar -v -f sar.log > swap.log

Post the results.
