What OS? Your other post mentions AIX. Getting data from the past is really difficult unless you had already set up monitoring or auditing.
If you have detailed logs from applications, sometimes you can infer that application A has been taking longer and longer times to complete.
Many kinds of problems are sporadic or are hard to reproduce. These can only be found by creating monitors before the fact.
Please give us more system details: specific OS, main application(s) for the system.
Example: AIX 7.3, sybase server on SAN.

NAME
yppush - force propagation of Network Information Service database
SYNOPSIS
domain] host] maxm] mint] mapname
Remarks
The Network Information Service (NIS) was formerly known as Yellow Pages (YP). Although the name has changed, the functionality of the
service remains the same.
DESCRIPTION
copies a Network Information Service (NIS) map (database), mapname, from the map's master NIS server to each slave NIS server. It is usu-
ally executed only on the master NIS server by shell script which is run either after changes are made to one or more of the master's NIS
databases or when the NIS databases are first created. See ypmake(1M) and ypinit(1M) for more information on these processes.
constructs a list of NIS server host names by reading the NIS map within the domain. Keys within the map are the host names of the
machines on which the NIS servers run. then sends a "transfer map" request to the NIS server at each host, along with the information
needed by the transfer agent (the program that actually moves the map) to call back
When the transfer attempt is complete, whether successful or not, and the transfer agent sends a status message, the results can be printed
to standard output. Messages are printed when a transfer is not possible, such as when the request message is undeliverable or when the
timeout period on responses expires.
Refer to ypfiles(4) and ypserv(1M) for an overview of Network Information Service.
Options
recognizes the following options:
Copy mapname to the NIS servers in domain rather than to the domain returned by (see domainname(1)).
Propagate the map(s) only to the specified host.
Attempt to run
maxm transfers in parallel to as many servers simultaneously. Without the option, attempts to transfer a map to each
server, one at a time. When a network has many servers, such serial transfers can result in long delays to complete all
transfers. A maxm value greater than 1 reduces total transfer time through better utilization of CPU time at the mas-
ter. maxm can be any value from 1 through the number of NIS servers in the domain.
Set the minimum timeout value to
mint seconds. When transferring to one slave at a time, waits up to 80 seconds for the transfer to complete, after
which it begins transferring to the next slave. When multiple parallel transfers are attempted by use of the option, it
may be necessary to set the transfer timeout limit to a value larger than the default 80 seconds to prevent timeouts
caused by network delays related to parallel transfers.
Verbose mode:
messages are printed when each server is called and when each response is received. If this option is omitted, only
error messages are printed.
WARNINGS
In the current implementation (Version 2 NIS protocol), the transfer agent is ypxfr(1M) which is started by the ypserv(1M) program at
yppush's request (see ypxfr(1M) and ypserv(1M)).
Starting with ONCplus version B.11.31.02, the NIS Version 1 protocol is no longer available.
