ServerLoad Question..

[iwebserv]

When the serverload is high, is there a way I can see which user exactly may be running something that may be causing the server load to go high?

You can use ssh commands top and ps aux these can give good indications

In whm use "show current cpu usage" this will indicate what is pulling the power at the moment if it is http or and mysql , then use "show current running processses " this should show you which user is taking hits , then use " apache status " this again will confirm which user is currently taking hits , if it is intense mysql processes use " show mysql processes " all on the left menu , under different headings.

The 24 hour update on 'cpu/mysql/memory usage " should indicate your most intense users and any bad scripts pulling resources over a period .

Is there a way for resellers to get such info from the WHM for their own customers, please ?

Thanks !
