100% CPU Usage

Postby GreenMotion on Tue Apr 22, 2008 8:27 pm

I just finished setting up rsyslogd on a Centos 5.0 server. .. (dual, dual cores) ... with the MySQL plugin enabled. I use this server as a central syslogd server for about 7 other unix machines.

The volume of syslog messages we're getting is relatively low; yet rsyslogd takes up 100% CPU of one of the cores. MySQL on the other hand can't even be found in the top process list; so it's not like rsyslogd is hammering mysql.

Is this normal?

Hi,

sorry, I overlooked this message initially. Can you tell me a bit more about your configuration, so that I can try to reproduce this behavior. Also, it would probably be helpful if you could run rsyslogd in interactive debug mode. The output generated can hopefully guide me to the actual problem area. You do this by adding the -d -n command line options.

Thanks,
Rainer
