PASS61 slow as slug (again)

robinson.jason · April 14th, 2008, 3:38 PM

loads were hovering around 19 to 13 the last few times I checked. It is taking about 2 minutes to load a MySQL backed site. Please find what is causing these load overages.

Anyone else enjoying the World Wide Wait on pass61?

Yes, I just have a report from a client the email server is slow and timing out.

ERROR
Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost.
111 : Connection refused

Argh, high server load and can't connect to FTP again. Why does this always happen when I'm updating?

Frick. What the hell is it with the accounts on this server? I'm experiencing several minute load times.

^ Same, I can't even get to my files and after I just updated my phpBB3 my templates got a bit messy and I can't even download the files so I can fix it.

Frustrating? VERY.

Edit: and now it's completely down. Wonderful.

One of the main drives went bad -- said drive was replaced, and is being rebuilt via the RAID controller now:

Code:

Port   Status           Unit   Size        Blocks        Serial
---------------------------------------------------------------
p0     OK               u0     698.63 GB   1465149168    5QD27S51
p1     OK               u0     698.63 GB   1465149168    5QD22B8V
p2     DEGRADED         u0     698.63 GB   1465149168    5QK01NEC
p3     OK               u1     698.63 GB   1465149168    5QD271KN

It's at 6% so far, so it's going to be a bit longer before everything's A-OK again. Sorry guys!

Progressing slowly but surely:

Code:

Unit  UnitType  Status         %RCmpl  %V/I/M  Stripe  Size(GB)  Cache  AVrfy
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
u0    RAID-5    REBUILDING     13      -       64K     1396.96   OFF    OFF
u1    SINGLE    OK             -       -       -       698.481   OFF    OFF

13% done as of about 2 minutes ago. The process seems to be speeding up, but it's bound to slow down again due to different file sizes on the other drives. A large collection of small files will take longer to transfer than a large collection of large files.

what's the current status? Loads have been very SPIKY today and pop3 has been dying very often...

**removed** · April 17th, 2008, 4:34 PM

Slow and steady:

Code:

Unit  UnitType  Status         %RCmpl  %V/I/M  Stripe  Size(GB)  Cache  AVrfy
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
u0    RAID-5    REBUILDING     48      -       64K     1396.96   OFF    OFF
u1    SINGLE    OK             -       -       -       698.481   OFF    OFF

Unfortunately, there really isn't anything we can do to reduce the load. Moving files around like this is going to cause high load no matter what we do to try and prevent it.
