Hello

I have the following process that shows in my process list:

/usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --plugin-dir=/usr/lib64/mysql/plugin --user=mysql --log-error=/var/lib/mysql/server1.xxx.info.err --open-files-limit=2118 --pid-file=/var/lib/mysql/server1.xxx.info.pid
Consumes up to 20% of the memory.

Does anyone know if there is a problem with the above? How to fix if applicable?

Thanks

Hello :)

That is a normal process. It shows the MySQL server is running. Memory usage is normal on a Linux server, as explained on this post:

Memory Usage Higher Than Expected

Thank you.
