High load and high CPU caused by perl process

Using: Oracle 10.2.0.1.0
OS: Red Hat ES 4
Since this morning I have high load on one of my prod database server, this server has 3 databases of similar size.
High load is caused by perl process, one process has been running for over 75 min’s. process info
14302 ?        R     74:50 /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/perl/bin/perl /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/sysman/admin/scripts/segAdv.pl
26530 ?        R     23:36 /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/perl/bin/perl /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/sysman/admin/scripts/segAdv.pl
31152 ?        R      7:58 /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/perl/bin/perl /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/sysman/admin/scripts/segAdv.plSearching segAdv.pl on google, Metalink and this forum gives me ZERO results.
Any idea why this is running and cuasing this issue now (for last 8 months, I had not simlar perl issue), can I stop it without kill –9, maybe with emctl stop dbconsole.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Lee,
You say this is a core router, but as people use this terms to mean different things, are there any directly connected hosts? If there are one thing to check for is hosts sending multicast traffic with TTL=1. If you run the command show ip traffic | in bad hop and look at the rate the "bad hop count" is increasing. If I had a £ for every time I've seen that problem.... I couldn't retire just yet, but at least I could go buy myself a beer or two.
If you're seeing the hop count increasing at a rapid rate there are a couple of options:
Take a read of Troubleshooting high CPU on a 6500 with sup720 starting from the section Tools used to determine the source of the traffic and identify the hosts sending multicast with TTL=1.
If the Catalyst 6500 use PFC 3B add the command mls rate-limit all ttl-failure 100 10 to drop the multicast traffic in hardware.
The first option will take you longer, but at least you identify the cause and can advise the application owner why they should change their applications behaviour.
Regards

  • High load and high availability

    Hi, my problem is simple, i guess... I have ONE database with only one table, and i'm using sqlldr to insert data into it, the problem is that ther's a lot of data to be inserted and constantly. I'm trying to figure out what would be the best practice to improve the availability of my database. If i drop the indexes the sqlldr will insert the information quickly but i really think that it's not a good thing to do, because it would "kill" the select's to my db from the client side.
    Can anyone give a hand or guidance here?
    Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad english!

    There are many possibilities.
    Some depend on knowing the database version and the operating system.
    Some depend on your skill
    Some depend on the available hardware and the ability and desire to throw hardware at the problem
    Some depend on the supporting statistics, both for the environment and the runtime
    Some depend on whether you are serious enough to actually learn the architecture of the tool to use it wisely
    My guidance would be to purchase Tom Kyte's book from APress.com and use the utilities he includes in the book to understand where the problems are and what can be dome about them.

  • Prstat displays PROCESS/NLWP  with /0 , but high USR and SYS  cpu usage

    I'm running prstat on Sol 10u4 sparc and see from time to time one of more processes with high user and kernel cpu usage, The process name is just displayed as " /0". What is this ?
    see sample snapshot below:
    PID USERNAME USR SYS TRP TFL DFL LCK SLP LAT VCX ICX SCL SIG PROCESS/NLWP

    18734 root 3.7 8.9 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 86 0.5 52 52 3K 0 grep/1

    The slash number format is used to show the number of threads (light weight processes or LWP in Solaris parlance) in a given process (see the header says "PROCESS/NLWP"). I'd guess this is a race condition where prstat finds a process exists and has consumed some CPU, but when it goes to query the data on the process it's already exited so there's no process name and zero threads associated with it. For this to be true and to see this except more than every once in a blue-moon you'd have to have a system that was having processes forked at an amazing rate.
    I'd also say this is a bug, but one that you might have a hard time getting an traction on.

  • How could i get the kernel and user cpu usage for each process

    Hi all,
    In order to monitor the system CPU usage, I would like write a script to gather the kernel and user CPU usage for each process, like the prstat or top does. As always missing the shortlived kernel usage, prstat or top cann't get the precise CPU usage. I checked with the dtrace syscall, proc and fbt provider, but don't get which one is useful.
    Please provide your comments and suggestion.
    Thanks in adv

    As I've studied the "dtrace" for a while, and seems Sun gives a pretty high score on this new feature.....I do want to know whether there's some probe can work for it, like writing a "dtrace" version prstat.You can write a prstat without dtrace. Because that's just polling at specific intervals and reading some process structures from /proc. You could have dtrace fire a probe every 5 seconds and read the same thing, but it wouldn't really be using any features of dtrace. Trhying to write it "in dtrace" doesn't make much sense.
    What you could do that would be harder via other methods is to fire a probe at process exit that displayed the process information including total CPU time. They could print exactly when processes exited. Doing that without dtrace would be very difficult.

  • High load averages, low CPU usage

    HI,
         I recently upgraded to Lion and I am noticing high load averages ~0.7 for my system. The CPU is, however ~95% idle. I am not running any intensive apps. I first thought it is an I/O issue, but I have almost 500 MB free memory, and there is no disk activity. The system is perfectly fine, with all the eye candy/animations running smoothly. Is this a bug?
    Thanks for any help.

    Same problem here
    Did a clean install of Lion, moved everything manually. System was clean and running fast. Then, for some reason started to slow down after a few months. My last system (macbook snow leopard) was running fine for 3 years.
    I noticed HIGH load averages (over 2.5!) while CPU is ideling (only 'round 30% for user and system). System is slow and CPU gets hot, resulting in loud fan noise.
    Googled a lot, did standard maintenance tasks, tried to pinpoint cause - nothing so far. Will update when I find out more. Maybe someone else has a clue or Apple releases a fix. Fingers crossed.

  • Increse No of BGP while data load and how to bypass the DTPin Process Chain

    Hello  All,
    We want to improve the performance of the loads. Currently we are loading the data from external Data Base though DB link. Just to mention we are on BI 7 system.  We are by passing the PSA to load the data quickest. Unfortunately we cannot use PSA.  Because loads times are more when we use PSA. So we are directly accessing views on external data base.  Also external data base is indexed as per our requirement.
    Currently our DTP is set to run on the 10 parallel processes (on DTP settings for batch Batch Manager with job class A). Even though we set to 10 we can see loads are running on 3 or 4 Back ground parallel processes only. Not sure why. Does any one know why it is behaving like that and how to increase them?
    If I want to split the load into three. (Diff DTPs with Different selections).  And all three will load the data into same info provider parallel. We have the routine in the selection that will look a table to get the respective selection conditions and all three DTPs will kick off parallel as part of the process chain.
    But in some cases we only get the data for two or oneDTPs(depends on the selection conditions). In this case is there any way in routine or process chain to say that if there is no selection for that DTP then ignore that DTP or set to success for that DTP and process chain should continue.
    Really appreciate your help.

    Hi
    Sounds like a nice problemu2026
    Here is a response to your questions:
    Before I start, I just want to mention that I do not understand how you are bypassing the PSA if you are using a DTP? Be that as it may, I will respond regardless.
    When looking at performance, you need to identify where your problem is.
    First, execute your view directly on the database. Ask the DBA if you do not have access. If possible perform a database explain on the view (this can also be done from within SAPu2026I think). This step is required to ensure that the view is not the cause of your performance problem. If it is, we need to implement steps to resolve that.
    If the view performs well, consider the following SAP BI ETL design changes:
    1. Are you loading deltas or full loads. When you have performance problems u2013 the first thing to consider is to make use of the delta queue (or changing the extraction to just send deltas to BI)
    2. Drop indexes before load and re-create them after the load 
    3. Make use of the BI 7.0 write optimized DSO. This allows for much faster loads.
    4. Check if you do ABAP lookups during the load. If you do, consider loading the DSO that you are selecting on in memory and change the lookup to refer to the table in memory rather. This will save tremendous time in terms of DB I/O
    5. This will have cost implications but the BI Accelerator will allow for much faster loads
    Good luck!

  • DFSR performance question - high latency and high bandwidth - windows 2012r2

    Hello,
       first question here...
    We have a pair of backup servers, connected with a 1G WAN link (290 ms latency).
    I am replicating backup files (mainly SQL files) between them (one-way), for DR/BCP purposes.
    a Get-DfsrState regularly shows hundreds of files in waiting state, and only 16 or so being downloaded at the same time. The system is using very little bandwidth, much less than what I have set in the replication properties (256mbps)
    Is there any parameter I can tweak to increase the number of files being transferred in parallel copies?  
    Before you ask, the WAN circuits are fine and currently ~80% free. I can easily saturate them using other technologies (rsync, gluster, HTTP). The servers are doing very little as well (2x6C, 32G ram, lots of disks, CPU usually under 10%).
    Any idea on how to speed this up? I saw some registry settings in old articles for windows 2008r2, but nothing for 2012r2.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It seems that the number of downloading files is not related to bandwidth.
    By default, a maximum of 16 (four in Windows Server 2003 R2) concurrent downloads are shared among all connections and replication groups. Because connections and replication group updates are not serialized, there is no specific order in which updates are
    received. If two schedules are opened, updates are generally received and installed from both connections at the same time.
    For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

  • How to setup high availability and high precision Local NTP Service in Server2008R2?

    Hi guys,
    We have some servers on VMs, and we hope that the error between 2 server's clock MUST be smaller than 1 sec.
    For some reason, these servers can't access the internet. So, we suggest that we should setup some local NTP servers.
    For example, we want servers[10.10.10.1~10.10.10.6] to be the NTP server, and all clocks on servers[10.10.10.1~10.10.10.120] are synchronized automatically. How can we config NTP servers and clients?
    And when some NTP server's system clock changed suddenly(e.g. when some physical machine is down, and we move the VM onto a new one. The system clock may change.) How can we detected the change and fix the error?
    BTW, it says that "The W32Time service is not a full-featured NTP solution that meets time-sensitive application needs and is not supported by Microsoft as such." (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773263(v=ws.10).aspx).
    Can we still use W32TIME? Because Non-microsoft software may cause a VERY LONG term examination in our company, and we prefer a microsoft solution.
    Sorry for the bad english.
    Kind regards,
    M.Sheng

    Hi sjmind,
    In domain environment, all computer clocks in an AD DS domain are synchronized with the time of an authoritative computer. Many factors can affect time synchronization on
    a network.
    An AD DS forest has a predetermined time synchronization hierarchy. The Windows Time service synchronizes time between computers within the hierarchy, with the most accurate
    reference clocks at the top. Therefore it is impossible to use multi computer as the authority of time source.
    You can refer the following KB to plan how to sync your domain computer time.

  • Gtx 680 high temps and high fan speed

    I have my card since a few months and I always thought it was normal, until 2 days ago when a friend came over with his card an we did some tests to compare.
    When I play most games my card is at about 70-80c and 70-80% fan speed.
    We did a simple burn in test with furmark and after 2 minutes my card was at 84C and 78% fan speed while his was in the 60C range while staying quiet.
    Of course his card was fresh out of the box and his case is bigger, so more spacing, but mine has more cooling, especially for the gpu.  Could it be the thermal paste?  I see people having way better results with this card than what I am getting...

    Quote from: dude on 25-March-13, 01:01:37
    Since it is a pretty new card I think it's airflow in your case. I read somewhere here someone gave instructions for replacing thermal paste.
    My card is about 6 months old.  It's just that I always thought it was normal, even if I was disappointed with how loud the card was, since I bought this one espcially for the good cooling and low noise that I've read in so many reviews and tests before buying.
    However, my friend's card is brand new.  He came at my place so I could build his computer.  My case is a full atx tower, while his case is etax.  But, my cooling was done and redone many times, espcially since my card was loud and hot, I decided to change my cooling (which did not even change 1C).  I clean my case really often and my fans are well arranged to get the best airflow possible, while my friend's case has less fans and are not optimzed (intake-outake...) to have the best airflow. 
    Maybe the spacing really is for something, but 84C in 2 minutes of furmark with almost 80% fan speed is a lot.

  • Firefox Stops loading and than i have to END PROCESS and sometimes crashes. help?

    idk why or when this started happening but it sure is annoying. mozilla will do fine on one page. be running for hours at sometimes. than the second you go and look for another page. bam right in the middle of loading it will basically freeze. get a thinking curser and try and click on something. the not responding message comes up on the top. i then have to go so far as to open task manager and end it all together and start it back it. i wanna say it has something to do with adobe or maybe something else but i cant seem to find or fix it. (have gotten rid of adobe at one time and didnt fix my prob) have deleted mozilla and reinstalled. did not work. clear my cache. i have scanned my computer for virus's and malware, bots that sort of thing. im really about to try and find another browser if i cant figure this out soon. most of my crash reports have the letter bp at the beginning if that means anything. on average i have to do this 5 times a day. sometimes more depending on usage. id say 3-4 months have been doing this and finally fed up probably sent over a few hundred crash reports and i check my email and have never gotten an answer.

    1. I suggest that you update to the latest 3.5.12 version (or 3.6.9) both of which were released this past week. A lot of stability fixes have been made to Firefox since the 3.5.5 version was new.

    I investigated a bit more and recovered, that it has something to do with the printer drivers. When I remove all printers from setting, everything is fine. As soon as I add a printer (Brother MFC 9440CN printer/scanner, printer driver provided by Mountan Lion), the crash reporter starts it's work and the error log is full of those entries.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Marcus

    I did more exploration and found the cause of this, but I don't know how to fix it:
    I removed all Brother and Lexmark printer drivers and rebooted (and also tested with a virtual machine using 10.8.0 as guest os that never had any printer installed). As soon as I enter the printer settings and press the "+", the crashes begin, so it looked like the bonjour one of the printers announcing themselves via Bonjour were causing this.
    When watching a picture in the preview app the same happend. We have two multi function printers in our network, the already mentioned brother printer and a Lexmark X204N. Switching off the Lexmark (which wasn't installed on my Mac) solved the problem. Switching off the printer is no solution in our office (it's our fax device and main printer), but switching off mDNS on the Lexmark also solved it. But this can only be a workaround.
    Is this a known problem with Lexmark devices and Mountain Lion (it works fine with machines using Lion)? Are there any fixes known? It's just the Lexmark device announing itself via Bonjour that causes trouble, even if the driver is not installed.

  • MSI GS60 Ghost Pro Golden Edition - A Combination of Stylish and High Performance.

     I have no idea who can say no to this shining and charming beauty....
    The BackStory
        When I studied at graduate school, I bought my first laptop, Asus F3J, of my life and brought it to school everyday. Actually it was a 2.9kg around laptop for gaming and I felt like carry a heavy brick. It was quite inconvient and kind of suffer for a person like me who was not doing fitness. After I graduated from school and was being a member of society, I decided to find a  laptop that was much lighter and easier to bright to work. Toshiba R830 was what I chose, but this time, the performance of playing some hardcore game wasn’t good enough since it doesn’t have a discrete graphics card.
    I started to believe there is a trade off between perforamnce and weight of laptop with these two experience. Until one day, I came across with MSI GS60 Ghost Pro at Computex 2014, it was a notebook weigh just around 2kg and uncompromising with high performance. In more detail, It had core I7 CPU、High-end GTX graphics card and two 256MB SSD within it. From that day, I know it is the notebook am looking for, it is a note book I can bring to work and also play game at home. Furthermore, MSI is going to issue the limited Golden edition of it around the end of year, it gave me one more reason to buy this “good stuff”, because both me and my girl think gold is the most fashion color in recent year, just like iphone. So that is the backstory, now i just have the golden one and is going to unbox it for you.
    The Main Specification
    MSI GS60 Ghost Pro 2QE Golden Edition:
    •   CPU: Core i7-4710HQ (2.5GHz – 3.5GHz)
    •   OS: Windows 8.1
    •   Display: 15.6″ WQHD+, IPS (2880*1620)
    •   Memory Supplied: 16G 2*8GB DDR3L 1600
    •   Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX970M GDDR5 3GB
    •   Storage: 2 x 256GB M.2 SSD + 1TB 7200RPM HDD
    •   Wireless Lan: Killer 802.11 a/c
    The Unboxing
    It is a really big one, please do drive your car while buying this NB from the shop.
    Inside the main brown shipping box, there are MSI stylish back bag and the a black branded carry case.
    The back back is grey color with good material quality, it also a simple and fashion design which is suitable for young or stylish worker. The sense of touch is also good.
    There are several layers inside the bag, even more, a shock-absorbing laptop sleeve in it. What a surprise!!
    In the big black branded carry case. There are two black box, one is for accessory. One is for the main role “GS60” with sponge to protect it as you can see in the photo.
    Let see the accessory box first, a MSI gaming mouse、a MSI/SteelSeries Flux headset、a keyboard protector and a mouse pad.
    The mouse has red light shining on both side when it connect to the laptop. It’s really a gaiming stuff! We can also see the double braided cord that improved the durability.
    As “+” and “-“ these buttons in the middle of the mouse, user can adjust the sensity of the mouse instantly by these two bottons in the game. No need to waste your time finding the adjument UI within the game. It is such a good benefit for a gamer.
    The Flux headset has ear cushions with mesh-cloth material it let you feel comfortable when wear it. You also can find out the color of the shell beside the headset can be changed, one pair is MSI design in red color, the other one is pure black one.
    It also has a convenient design that the earmuff can be folded, in order to make the headset into a plat one and easy to put in your bag.
    The performance of the headset is high-end and highs that don’t get brittle. About the deep bass, it also quite stunning. Overall, it can make the music carry listener’s heart.
    It deserves you to put it on the top of your gaming headset list.
    Here we open another black box, the GS60 is packaging by the non-woven cloth.
    There are also the power adaptor、power cord and mini displayport to D-sub cable.
    By the way, the power adapter is 25.53 mm thick and 0.52kg. weigh, 19.5V and 7.7A output.
    Moreover, there are instruction manuals、several driver CDs and even two military dog tag with MSI logo, actually I am not a military lover, so I am going to use them as a key ring but not to hang on my neck.
    Finally, let us see a royal-like GS60 Ghost Pro Golden…
    Using Mg-Li alloy as the material, its chasis gains the advantage of both ultra-light and solid.
    According to MSI official website, the idea of design comes from the stealth fighter, so it shows dynamic streamline in its design. Beside the visual effect, it makes you feel comfortable when typing due to the slimmer front edge and solid palm rest. The high gloss finish and bright gold will reflect light, so it change color slightly in different lighting condition. Overall, it delivery supreme visual treat.
    To see a more apparent golden color, I put it on my sofa with yellow background.
    Shinging and charming….
    The fancy muscle curve and hire line surface make it elegant and gorgeous.  
    The shield and the MSI logo, they are delicated design without roughness.
    The black color keycap contrast with the golden chasis apparently.
    The touchpad looks cool as well, the material it made let the surface being anti-skidding and you wont leave your fingerprint on it.
    It has Dynaudio speaker and Steelseries keyboard these two famous brand as it high-end equipment. 4 channel speakers and comfortable tactile keyboard. Moreover, the Graphics card it equiped is GTX 970M,
    One of the lastest high-end Nvidia GTX graphics card. It is the first gaming notebook to equip GTX 970M .No doubt MSI regard themselves as the leader brand of gaming.
    Sound Blaster Cinema 2+Dyanudio, Bravo~~
    Let’s check the connectivity of this beauty.
    No ports but seried of cooling vents at the rear panel,in order to let air flow and palm rest feeling.
    being better.
    The left side of it located the microphone (line out) and headphone (line in) jack, two USB 3.0 ports, the power connector socket and a security port. Also the vent close to the rear panel. The metal golden jack can isolate much more noice and enhance the reality of music as not being distortion.
    The right side of GS60 located an USB 3.0 port, card reader, Mini DisplayPort, HDMI port, and GB LAN (RJ45). GS60 Ghost Pro can support 2 external moniotr with mini display and HDMI port. When playing PRG game, you can use the main one to play game, the other one can show a walkthrough. The last one, you can even use skype or outlook to connect others.
    The front side you can see the LED to show some fuction status. Such as the battary status and bloothtooth has been turned on or not..etc.
    From bottom of this notebook you can see the battery is not removable, I guess the idea probably come from iphone. In fact, I seldomly remove the battery when I using a laptop, unless it really heavy to carry. But this time, GS60 is not heavy, so it wont be a problem to me.
    I used the scaler to measure the actual weight and ruler to see how thin it is, the result cames out 19.95mm thin and 2.1kg weight. Is it really a gaming machine I used to think of?! Such an ultra-book style.
    As I know, all the gaming notebook used to be black and silver color, there are few gaming notebook with others color. MSI this time has find its way to make a breakthrough. Of course, the creative thinking and the adventurous action is what we need in gaming world!!  
    In a word, as you can see from the picture above ,the metallic feel of it is so attractive!!It is the most stylish and creative gaming notebook I have ever seen.
    All of above are the unboxing of hardware part.let’ talk about some function and feature of this treasure.
    Dragan Gaming Center which is preinstalled in this MSI laptop. With this application, you can monitor the status of the important elements in the system. You can also quick start a game or an utility through it.
    Fn+F7="Shift", according to the official website, the key can be used to change the mode of the notebook in 3 status, the default "Sport"mode、"Comfort" mode and "Green mode", it is a adjustment function to control the CPU and GPU workload in order to balance the performance and temperature
    Use "Shift" to switch the mode you prefer.
    Green- System locks both GPU and CPU chip temp.
    Comfort- System locks GPU chip temp and dynamic adjusts the GPU chip temp
    Sport- Defaut and without any control.
    I am not afraid about the high temperature and noise from fans, so I like to use the default one, Sport mode~
    If you are playing a game in the library, please do choose Green mode to keep the fan from being busy.
    The "Shift" is MSI exclusive function, the idea comes from the shifting gear in automobile.
    Here comes another interesting feature, which is called Killer Double Shot Pro.With this function,
    the GB LAN and Wireless LAN act like combined togather and user can acquire the bandwith from both.
    Killer Netwok Manager UI
    This network technology also offers you a smooth background when playing game, because you can set the gaming applications as higher priority to use the bandwith than others. What a bravo feature!!
    The highest resolution of GS60 Ghost Pro is 2880*1620 which is also called 3K,
    as you can see from the screenshot below, when playing game you gain much more visual delight.
    With the HDMI and mini display output, you can enjoy a 1+2 matrix display function.
    With the XSplit Gamecaster preintalled in GS60, you can share your game just in time through live streaming while playing it. however, I won't use this function because I don't wanna share my skill to the others, hahaha~~
    The Steal Series Engine, it is my favorite. You can set the keypress macro、text macro or lauch application just in one key. For example, while playing Leaque of Legend, we always need to press Q、W、E、R、T
    immediately, but with keypress macro function, you can trigger them just in one key. Quite convient, isn't it?
    You can also choose the color you want for the keyboard backlit with Steal Series Egine. This function shows the gaming feature indeed.  
    That's see the multi-color backlit of it. What a show off!!!
    Below is the hardware information showed by Nvidia Experience UI and GPU Z
    GeForce GTX 970M with DDR5 3G and I7-4710HQ!!
    I can't wait to see the 3D MARK 11 P score...
    Here it got P9272 at sport mode. Outstanding!!
    For 3D MARK Fire Strike, it got 6515 at sport mode. I have to say that GS60 Ghost Pro punches above its weight.
    The result of Valley Benchmark 1.0 is below, score 1560 and FPS is 37.3.
    Testing the Call of duty Ghost with FRAPS, while play the game, it goes smoothly and the fps showed at top-left is around 100~200. As you can see the delicated scenery and character there, it seems like act in the reality.
    The sequencial read of these two SSD is 1022MB/s, it features from the Super RAID technology. Applying the RAID 0 technical usually used in server into SSD to make the IOPS much better.
    Take a look at its outward appearance again, bring it oudoor to see its color under natural light.
    Fantastic~~
    I would like to say, the GS60 Ghost Pro Golden is Lamborghini in gaming laptop!! It will be all the rage.

    This year, GTX970M performance is even better than 880M, with GS60's slim design, I can only say the advance of technology is so amazing!!!
