High Load Advice

[btemple]

We are reaching the end of our full implementation of NAgios XI. We seem to be having high load issues. I was hoping to get some advice. What stats hardware specs can I post for you to take a look ?
I am pretty sure our load spikes are coming from the netapp checks that we run. We have tons of volumes and the response time is a 1-2 seconds per cehck. The checks are currently run ever ten minutes.

More info. There was an obvious change on Jan 18th. I believe this is when the final Net app filer was added to production.

First, we need some info about the server hardware:

Code: Select all

lscpu > /tmp/info.txt
cat /proc/cpuinfo >> /tmp/info.txt
free -m >> /tmp/info.txt
top -n 1 -b >> /tmp/info.txt
ps -aef >> /tmp/info.txt

Post the file /tmp/info.txt.

Here you go thanks !

Are you currently using modgearman or livestatus? Can you post the nagios.cfg file? Have you tried following any of the steps, outlined in the "Maximizing Performance In Nagios XI" document?

Not sure for question #1 where would I find the info ?
Answer # 2 attched
Will continue to work through #3

Lets also run the following so we can see which process is using the CPU, I noticed tripwire on here which I know doesn't come on a default XI install

Code: Select all

ps aux

See attached. Tripwire was installed due to separation of duties auditing

Are you still seeing similar high load?

One thing I noticed in your last post was that the check_netapp_ng_64 plugin was using a considerable amount of CPU (53.5%).

We didn't create this plugin, nor do we have a netapp server to test against, but it certainly could be a bug in the plugin.

Load comes and goes. I would say it is still high. I originally posted that check as a possible root cause so I am pretty sure that is the issue.
