Fog SVN 5020 and above CPU Hammered thread.

[Tom Elliott]

I’m now fairly certain these cpu load issues is now fixed. It was due to HookManager. I’m sorry it took so long to figure out.

[Trevelyan]

Everything seems happy now!

Thanks

PS - Hosts and Users report shows up as error 500 - links to (fog server…) /node=report&sub=file&f=SG9zdHMgYW5kIFVzZXJzLnBocA==

[Tom Elliott]

@Trevelyan I’ll fix the hosts and users report when I get into work.

Can you all verify if things are better and let me know? I’m sorry about the problem this caused, but hey progress or something.

[Sebastian Roth]

I want to thank Tom again for this! I tried to assist and help but I just don’t know the code (and its history) as much as Tom does. He’s done all the hard work to find and fix this issue. Along the way he also fixed a couple other things as well.

@Tom-Elliott Don’t say sorry. FOG is work in progress and you are pushing things way forward!! :metal:

[Mark Buteyn]

@Tom-Elliott Thanks for all your work on fog. Long time user. I’m on 5124 and CPU utilization looks good. I echo @Trevelyan 's concern about the user tracker report. CPU utilization goes high and then comes back down after the 500 error is sent to the browser. I know you said you’d fix it when you got to work. Is there a way for me to find out what version fixes it? Then I won’t bother posting this question in the forum.

Thanks,

Mark

I updated my main and storage node after the update to SVN 5126 the CPU usage is normal but something is still wrong with mysql the database hits MAX_Workers right away and this prevents the storage node from connecting.

After reverting storage node is back up.

but the apache log show slightly different errors but the node is working?

[Wayne Workman]

@Joseph-Hales Does your max_connections settings get wiped when you update? Can you check them?

[Joseph Hales]

I checked max_workers and max_connections were still edited properly to test further I set max_workers and max_connections to 1000 and I am still seeing the same issue.

[Joseph Hales]

SVN 5155 CPU is fine but storage node still can’t connect and max_workers hits that limit again even when set to 1000.

[Sebastian Roth]

@Joseph-Hales Well, maybe you just have “too many” hosts talking to your FOG server…

I will solve this thread as the performance/load issue is solved. Feel free to go on about max_connections here or open a new topic.

[Tom Elliott]

@Uncle-Frank, @Joseph-Hales

I’ve added what I am terming "sleeper code’.

Essentially, it will not continuously hammer the MySQL server if too many connections are being reached. Rather, it will force the item that is waiting for data to sleep for 5 seconds in hopes the next time it hits, it can actually operate. I doubt this will fix the apache max request workers problem, but it should ensure usability of the system as MySQL is the largest problem. It should, also, allow the GUI to function in these instances as it too will wait for connections to become available.

[Joseph Hales]

Updated to 5207 the sleeper code fixed my storage node not connecting but you are correct we are still seeing the max connections issue I will start a new thread on just that issue. As for the comment about to many hosts talking I would note the max connections issue is a recent thing and my hosts have actually decreased this year a small amount. I am also far from the only site running this many host but it is likely that I am the only one who is trying to run SVN at this time most large shops won’t upgrade till final release.

And that is greatly appreciated, you’re helping support FOG just by running trunk in your organization and working with the developers on issues. People like you help make FOG releases solid for everyone else.
