Server High Load

Hi Rahail,

Load issue can be trace with the below mentioned commands.

#top -c
check which process or user is generating the load issue in the server.
#pstree -apu
From the process list check any suspicious process running in the server.
#netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {'print $5'}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -nk 1
Check DOS or DDOS attack to the server.
#netstat -ntuplaee
Verify all the ports are known ports. If you found any unknown port trace the process id and trace it with lsof command.

If the issue persist, feel free to update. I am happy to assist you in this.
