High Disk I/O Problem

Hello all
why every server have a capture Process have this problem "High Disk I/O" ???
in all configurations , transactions load (high or low) , number of connections (high or low)
i try to keep server without any transactions or any connections for 6 day and i still have this Problem
it seems a serious problem without fixing

    Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
    I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk.
    My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standard Definition, now it just defaults to Standard Definition.(I'm using Apple's DVD Player)
    Can I fix this problem?

    Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
    I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
    IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
    IOFireWireAVC.kext
    IOFireWireFamily.kext
    IOFireWireIP.kext
    IOFireWireSBP2.kext
    I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
    The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
    So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
    So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?

  • High disk usage/high memory usage.

    i keep getting high memory usage and high disk usage in ps cs6.
    its slow when i open a file. how can i solve this problem.
    thank you.
    philip.

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but more than what?  More RAM is almost always better, but you haven't answered most of the questions posed here.  The answer might be different if you have 2 GB of RAM or 32 GB of RAM already.  A 9 megapixel document could get rather large with a lot of layers, but again you've neglected to give any hard info about its size.
    Regarding your video card, that's a bit of a judgment call you need to make.  For Photoshop CS6 I currently advise people to try to get a video card that gets a score of 1000 or better on this benchmark:  http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
    Video card speed will matter when you're editing those 3D components and video card VRAM will also matter, but possibly even more importantly your GeForce 320 is a bit old, and nVidia may just not be doing their best driver work for it any more. 
    Everything in general will run more smoothly with a powerful modern video card.  I like to recommend a VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 7750 - or if the computer power supply and your budget allow, the even more powerful 7850.  VisionTek does a very good job with their hardware, IMO, and it comes with a lifetime guarantee. 
    Keep in mind that if you switch from nVidia to ATI or vice versa, you should carefully sweep your system to ensure all files from the old card are removed, then visit the web site of the new card's maker and download/install their latest display driver release.
    Best of luck.

  • RAM Issues + High disk usage on MSI GE60

    Recently I've noticed that my system slowly eats up RAM. It starts off at 21% and can go as high up as 80% or more. When I'm playing games on it the RAM does not clear up properly either, it stays at 50% or so. This was an issue before that I somehow managed to solve, but it is back again.
    As for high disk usage, that's been a problem since I've had the laptop.
    OS: Windows 8
    Processor: Intel Core i7 4700MQ (2.40GHz)
    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M
    RAM: 8GB Memory
    HDD: 750GB
    If you need more info I'll provide it.

    If you open task manager-> performance -> open resource manager / you will see whats eating up your resources
    if its windows see if indexing is off
    did you installed 3rd party software diffrent than stock ?
    how old is your laptop?
    its not normal to have such high usage numbers !! i think its a program causing the problems !
    if you check your resource manager you will be able to see whats causing it
    ps if possible please post a screen shot and ill look into it

  • [SOLVED] High disk activity after kernel boot

    Hi,
    after kernel loading (just before getty starts) i notice extremely high disk activity for ~20 seconds for no reason. I think that it is something related to systemd and mount services.
    When i set rootfs to read-only in syslinux kernel parameters then the system starts normally without delay. So, i think that something is constantly writing to (or checking?) my hard disk right after boot sequence.
    I'm using  kernel 3.7.9-1-ARCH.
    $ systemd --version

    It was a problem with preload and its configuration.. I removed it and everything went back to normal!

  • KDE 4.7: very slow and high disk usage

    Since upgrade to KDE 4.7 on my i686 laptop, my system behaves weirdly. I noticed a slow down caused by a very high disk usage: when the HDD spins the cpu usage reported by the CPU monitor plasmoid is very high (~ 50%), while top reports a very small CPU load. Another strange symptom is that, when I try to close the session, the system freezes for about 15 seconds before the logout/shutdown/restart dialog window appears, again with HDD spinning furiously. If I exit the dialog window and then try to close session again it works smoothly, so I think some caching is at work at second try.
    This is very painful since it slows down my workflow. Since now I tried to:
    - disable nepomuk, strigi and all that using the nepomukcontroller plasmoid
    - disable compositing
    - delete .kde folder
    - uninstall and reinstall all kde packages
    without any benefit. On the same laptop I have dual boot with a 64 bit arch installation, which does not have the same problem, nor has it my 64 bit desktop pc.
    Does anyone have similar issues? I don't understand what is it that makes the HDD spin so much, nor how to eventually track it down (are there som HDD usage profiling utilities?). Moreover, why top and CPU usage plasmoid report so different CPU usage stats?
    I'm very confused, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Although I'm not having any of the issues as Snack, I have found KDE 4.7.0 to be a very horrible release. In fact, I'm sick and tired of the KDE release notes bragging about killing thousands of bugs each release, when in actuality the first few revisions of each stable release are horrible. When I first upgraded, I ran into at least four really nasty bugs. Although I've worked around some of them, it left a really sour taste in my mouth. Here is what I've experienced:
    1.) With a new user or fresh install, there is no wallpaper by default, even if I install kde-wallpapers before I log in, it makes no difference.
    2.) Sometimes kwin will crash during log out.
    3.) Worse yet, if I exit a full screen game, it will more than likely crash Kwin. This is a problem on my laptop (which has intel video) and not my desktop (which has nvidia video). If I don't remember to disable desktop effects before opening a game, I may run into a problem.
    4.) Although my performance is good, it's not great. I would think a laptop with a Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM would run faster than it is.
    I have tested XFCE for a bit, and I do like it alot. However, with XFCE I am unable to browse Samba shares, and that is a huge problem. In addition, I find KDE's applications to be much better than what ships with XFCE, but I question whether they're worth the performance hit. I really love Kate, Gwenview, Digikam, and Amarok. I know you can install those in XFCE, but they feel out of place and then my desktop pretty much becomes a mutt. Not only that, but KDE is full featured, whereas XFCE is not. It's like I have to choose between a stable desktop or a desktop with full of bugs.
    I hope that KDE 4.7.1 fixes everything, but historically it's usually the 4.x.2 release that really does the trick.

  • Disk i/o problem: suggestions needed

    Oracle Version: 10G Release 2
    OS : HP-UX
    Physical RAM:16G
    Number of users accessing the db on peak time: 250
    Due to high Disk i/o I've been asked to do a hardware review on two of our servers.
    So this what i am going to do
    1. At unix(HP-UX) level, i am going to issue the following command
    $ sar -d 10 7
    and analyze the results
    2. Analyse the results of the following query
    SELECT d.name,
    f.phyrds reads,
    f.phywrts wrts,
    (f.readtim / decode(f.phyrds,0,-1,f.phyrds)) readtime,
    (f.writetim / decode(f.phywrts,0,-1,phywrts)) writetime
    FROM
    v$datafile d,
    v$filestat f
    WHERE
    d.file# = f.file#
    ORDER BY
    d.name
    /3. Make sure that Tables and its related Indexes are on different tablespaces which exist on different physical disks.
    4. Make sure that datafiles and redo-log files are on different disks
    I don't know much about file striping and DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT parameter. So i going to learn about it soon.
    Anything you guys want to suggest?

    A couple of comments.
    HP-UX Glance is an invaluable analysis tool. That is always one of the 1st tools I grab when dealing with what seems to be a performance issue on a HP-UX platform. (it also enables you to write scripts for capturing performance data for analysis - a very useful feature)
    What can Glance tell you? The most important fact - is there a real I/O bottleneck, or is this merely a perceived problem from end-users/developers?
    I hate wasting my time chasing a non-existing performance problem. Which is why I always harp (in these forums and elsewhere) that. The #1 Step In Performance Tuning/Analysis is -=IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM!=-
    Is I/O really the problem? Are the I/O channels being hit hard? Or maybe it is swap space that is being hit hard which in turn not only add I/O (which makes it seem that I/O is the problem), but cause a viscous page swapping and trashing cycle.
    On the Oracle side, I/O counts are neither here not there. Just because datafile is being hit harder than another datafile does not necessarily indicate a performance problem.
    What is important in my view is WHAT those Oracle sessions is WAITING on? Every single wait means an impact on just how fast that session can do its job.
    Is the sessions waiting on I/O? Maybe not.. maybe it is a log buffer waits with the DB Writer being slow as async I/O is not working. Or maybe waiting on redo log switches as the redo logs are too few and small. Or anyone of a 1000+1 other possibilities.
    In my view it is imperative to first accurately identify the problem.. and not assume that high disk I/O is the problem. It could very well just be a symptom. And toubleshooting that could very well be a frustrating and wasted exercise.

  • Low number users, high disk IO, 11g 106 Win32

    I can see for a high number of users in a critical high availability environment,
    all the things Oracle does for maintenance, monitoring, etc. is vital.
    But for an intranet office with 5 users and less than 4 gigs of data, using the database in the daytime only, and a couple backup jobs running at night, is there a way to reduce the frequency of oracle disk IO events for monitoring, etc. The hard drives are just running themselves to death.
    Oracle CPU use is low after fixing a known problem with Windows 11g 106 and one maintenance job problem noted on this forum previously related to sysman.mgmt_job where job_name = 'PROVISIONING DAEMON'.
    It is possible part of the high disk IO is Windows 2008 adding many behind the scenes monitoring tasks compared to Windows 2003.
    Any ideas to reduce disk thrashing in low user environment would be welcome.
    Thanks

  • Failed restore from TM, disk now reporting problems.

    Hello,
    I have, unfortunately, landed in a bad position... My Macbook was last backed up last May with Time Machine. A few days ago, the internal hard drive in the Macbook went bad and was replaced with a new one by Apple. They installed 10.5.5 on the machine, so the welcome video starts up when I turn it on. At the genius bar, they told me to use the time machine backup option after the welcome video to restore my files. However, when I select that option, the window does not show the external hard drive I use to store the time machine backup.
    Since no drive or backup was listed in that window, I assumed that this problem was caused by an incompatibility between 10.5.5 (which Apple installed on the new hard drive) and the older version of the system stored in my TM backups from last May (maybe 10.5.3?). Plus, I can see all the TM backups when I plug the drive into my other computers.
    I booted the Macbook off the OS 10.5 DVD, and I selected the Restore from TM Backup option. This quickly pulled up the backup info from the external hard drive, and it began the restore process. Toward the end of the restore, the process failed, and it suggested I restart and try again. I restarted (booting off DVD again) and tried to restore again. This time, it told me that it can't access the files and the disk may have problems. I plugged the disk into another computer and ran "verify" in disk utility. It said "invalid index key," the volume needs to be repaired- Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed."
    Here's my problem- I'm not sure that I want to mess with repairing the drive, as I don't want to potentially screw up the TM backup file structure. I don't have another copy of the info in these TM backups, since the original internal hard drive crashed and this is my restore option. Should I use a program like Superduper to make a copy before attempting a repair on the external drive? Is it likely a repair on the drive will screw up the TM backup data? I'm not really sure how to proceed safely.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks for your time.
    ~ Dan

    Hi, Glenn,
    Thanks for the suggestions. As an update, I did two clones of the drive using SuperDuper onto two other external drives. Both of those clones were successful, but none of the time machine backup data pulls up through the Leopard DVD, Time Machine itself, or through Migration Assistant. Disk utility finds errors in the data on both of the clones, but fixing the errors doesn't help the situation in any way.
    In efforts to clean up the disk errors or pull the data off the drives manually, I have used Disk Warrior, Data Rescue II, File Salvage, and Disk Utility. Unfortunately, none of these apps have worked as a fix. I can't even seem to salvage the individual files to transfer them manually, leading me to believe that Time Machine is a deck of cards when part of the files become corrupted... What is frustrating is that I was able to see all of the backup files when I began the first restore process. Now I can't see them at all. I've never had a problem with the external disk drive, and all the utility programs seem to indicate that the problems are with the files versus the drive.
    Any other ideas on how to get these files extracted? Given the 60GB or so of data recorded on the disk, I know the info is sitting there somewhere... I just can't get to it.
    Thanks for the help!

  • Check process generating high disk I/O read

    Hi Gurus,
    In Solaris 8, which command can I use to check the process that is generating high disk IO read ?
    Mav

    I do not know which file is generating high disk IO read.
    Is there a command to check which process is generating more Disk IO read ?
    I'm using iostat to check Disk IO read every 15 minutes and output to a log file. But I'm unable to determine
    which process is causing high Disk IO read at times.

  • High disk utilization every 24 hours

    Hi all,
    While troubleshooting an user's complain about slow access to his mailbox on a Windows 2012/Exchange 2013 environment, I came across this interesting behavior:
    Disk utilization on the server will increase from 100KBps to 3000KBps (on average) and stay high for a good 10 hours or so. Then disk activity will go down for exactly 24 hours from the time it was up and increase again for another cycle.
    Basically, no matter how long it takes to go down, it will increase again 24 hours later. Looking at Perfmon and Resource Manager all I could see during both periods is that store.worker.exe is always on top, and READ has higher values. The issue does not
    appear to be related to business hours / backup window / client access to exchange, as it occurs at different times of the day and changes everyday.
    I believe it has something to do with an internal maintenance/reporting/monitoring feature of Exchange 2013, as it happens on 3 Exchange environments we manage, completely apart from each other.
    Microsoft Exchange Health Manager service has already been disabled as well as scheduled tasks under Microsoft/Windows/PLA and they all proved not to make a difference.
    Any ideas out there?

    Good Call. I just spent the last few hours going over 550,000 events. 
    I reviewed the application log for a 24 hour period and here is what I noticed:
    During the high disk queue period there are lots of entries for MsExchangeMailboxAssistants. For each of the 15 mailbox databases. 
    These only run during the High Disk Queues window.
    TopN Words
    Store DS Maintenance
    Sharing Policy
    SharePoint Signal Store
    Search Index Repair Time Based 
    People-centric triage 
    People Relevance
    Managed Folder Mailbox 
    Mailbox Processor
    Mailbox Association Replication
    Calendar Repair
    People Relevance Feeder
    Orphaned Mailbox Purge
    Here are the examples of the log entries for Event ID 9017
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. TopN Words Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Store DS Maintenance Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Sharing Policy Assistant. for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. SharePoint Signal Store Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this
    database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Search Index Repair Time Based Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. People-centric triage for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. People Relevance Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Managed Folder Mailbox Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Mailbox Processor Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Mailbox Association Replication Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes
    on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Calendar Repair Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    There are 3039 of these messages as well:
    The people relevance feeder for mailbox *** picked 16 sent items to process. Number of sent items successfully processed 16 and number of sent items failed to be processed 0. Total time taken to process this
    mailbox 4539.8548.
    It appears the purge of orphaned mailboxes happens only at this time as well .
    These run throughout the day and not just 24 hours after the last restart/switchover.
    Calendar Sync 
    Junk Email Options 
    Probe Time Based 
    Store Maintenance 
    Examples of the Event ID 9017
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Calendar Sync Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Junk Email Options Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Probe Time Based Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Store Maintenance Assistant for database *** is entering a work cycle. There are *** mailboxes on this database.
    So how do I get the first group of maintenance tasks to run throughout the day, or at different times, or at least not all at the same time for all 15 databases?
    Thanks!! 
    Well, its all workload based, so I don't think you can readily adjust that.
    I'm more inclined to look at the specs of the mailbox servers. Are they up to the task and have they been vetted with the Mailbox Calculator?

  • XML Query Have High Disk Reads.

    Question regarding XML data. When I query the following sql statement, the performance is fast. In addition, the explain plan shows that this query is efficient and utliizing all the indexes. However, when I query the v$sql table, I see that this query has very high physical read. Any idea as to why this query has a high physical read?
    SELECT lpcs.TEXT_LOAN_PCH_CONT_CNTNT_XML.extract('/').getClobVal() as TEXT_CNTNT_XML
    FROM REFTDBR1.LOAN_PCH_CONT_CNTNT_SET lpcs

    AND lpcs.ind_deltn = 'N'
    AND lpcs.ind_curr = 'Y'

    We're on Oracle 11Rg1 RAC with ASM architecture on Liinux platform. Below is the explain plan

    This query was executed 1623 times so I guess that could explain the high disk reads? Does this mean that this query is not being stored in the buffer cache since the disk reads are high?

  • Performance issue High disk I/O

    Hi All,
    we have Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production running on REd Hat EE 4
    We are having some high disk I/O issues after doing some schema changes last week.
    I checked some wait events but found pmon timer and smon timer at the top all the time. but not getting any clue of reason behind it.
    If anyone has faced such issue then please advice as what could be reason of it.
    SELECT a.SID, a.event, a.wait_time, a.seconds_in_wait, a.state
    FROM v$session_wait a, v$session b
    WHERE a.SID = b.SID AND event <> 'SQL*Net message from client'
    ORDER BY seconds_in_wait DESC
    SID     EVENT     WAIT_TIME     SECONDS_IN_WAIT     STATE
    1     pmon timer     0     4090     WAITING
    8     smon timer     0     1209     WAITING
    9     rdbms ipc message     0     799     WAITING
    regards

    To add some more information to this
    The disk activity before doing schema changes used to be somewhere around 30-45% but now it has suddenly went to 70-80%.
    The schema changes includes addition of some complex views, tables and indexes.
    but i haven't seen any considarable chnages in size of newly added objects they are all together less than 1.5 gb and our total database size is 700GB.
    i took snapshot for over period of time i found top event as direct path write

    From the oracle side you can obtain OS process id for sessions having some waits for user I/O
    select p.spid, s.sid, s.sql_id
    from v$session s, v$process p
    where s.paddr=p.addr
    and s.sid in
    select sid from v$session_wait
    where wait_class='User I/O'
    );and to see sessions that are currently waiting on user I/O use
    select p.spid, s.sid, s.sql_id
    from v$session s, v$process p
    where s.paddr=p.addr
    and s.sid in
    select sid from v$session_wait
    where wait_class='User I/O'
    and wait_time=0
