High apache2 load

[jayphizzle]

Hi!

Currently i’m moving from a old 1.2 fog server to a new 1.3 fog server.
A few days ago i deployed a snapin on the 1.2 server to replace the old fog client with the new one.
This is working without issues so far. More and more clients are successfull connected to the new fog server.

OS: Ubuntu 14.04.4
fog trunk : 7254
Clients: ~230
(170 already moved to the new server)

What i changed so far:

• Set Fog Mem Config to 512MB
• Set MySQL Limit to 200 Connections

This is the current situation:

Load it is not constant, there are some little drops (for ~5s) from time to time.

Is there anything i can adjust to reduce the load?

Update and the header info should be fixed.

[Sebastian Roth]

And another user in the list who is seeing high load on current FOG trunk. We need to get this sorted!

[Tom Elliott]

@Sebastian-Roth Going to guess that doing a “Reset all hosts” encryption data will fix (after the initial repull of data) the load average.

[jayphizzle]

@Tom-Elliott can i just do that ?

I also noticed that the load now (on a friday afternoon) is much lower.
I guess the load rises with the amount of online/connected clients.

[Joe Schmitt]

@jayphizzle I also recommend trying a reset encryption data for all hosts. You should see a short spike in traffic, but afterwards the load should be “normal”, assuming it’s an issue with the client.

[jayphizzle]

@Jbob I will try that. Is there a special menu point to reset encryption for all clients? or do i need to create a group will all hosts and select “reset encryption data” in the group settings?

[Wayne Workman]

@jayphizzle Use a group, as you said. That’s how I do it.
