we have an unix system which has
load average normally about 20.
but while i am running a particular unix batch which performs heavy
operations on filesystem and database average load
reduces to 15.
how can we explain this situation?
while running that batch idle cpu time is about %60-65... (0 Replies)
Hello all, I have a question about load averages.
I've read the man pages for the uptime and w command for two or three different flavors of Unix (Red Hat, Tru64, Solaris). All of them agree that in the output of the 2 aforementioned commands, you are given the load average for the box, but... (3 Replies)
Hello, Here is the output of top command. My understanding here is,
the load average 0.03 in last 1 min, 0.02 is in last 5 min, 0.00 is in last 15 min.
By seeing this load average, When can we say that, the system load averge is too high?
When can we say that, load average is medium/low??... (8 Replies)
Hi,
i have installed solaris 10 on t-5120 sparc enterprise.

Hi ,
I am using 48 CPU sunOS server at my work.
The application has facility to check the current load average before starting a new process to control the load.
Right now it is configured as 48. So it does mean that each CPU can take maximum one proces and no processe is waiting.

Hi,
I am getting a high load average, around 7, once an hour. It last for about 4 minutes and makes things fairly unusable for this time.
How do I find out what is using this. Looking at top the only thing running at the time is md5sum.
I have looked at the crontab and there is nothing... (10 Replies)

raidstart
raidstart(8) System Manager's Manual raidstart(8)NAME
raidstart, raidstop, - command set to manage md devices.
SYNOPSIS
raidstart [options] <raiddevice>*
raidstop [options] <raiddevice>*
DESCRIPTION
RAID devices are virtual devices created from two or more real block devices. This allows multiple disks to be combined into a single
filesystem, possibly with automated backup and recovery. Linux RAID devices are implemented through the md device driver.
If you're using the /proc filesystem, /proc/mdstat gives you informations about md devices status.
Currently, Linux supports linear md devices, RAID0 (striping), RAID1 (mirrroring), and RAID4 and RAID5. For information on the various lev-
els of RAID, check out:
http://ostenfeld.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/
for new releases of the RAID driver check out:
ftp://ftp.fi.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/raid/alpha
Avaible commands are :
mkraid : configures (creates) md (RAID) devices in the kernel, banding multiple devices into one.
raidstart : activates (starts) an existing 'persistent' md device
raid0run : activates old nonpersistent RAID0/LINEAR md devices
raidstop : turns off an md device, and unconfigures (stops) it
By default, a systems RAID configuration is kept in /etc/raidtab, which can configure multiple RAID devices.
All of these tools work similiarly. If -a (or --all) is specified, the specified operation is performed on all of the RAID devices men-
tioned in the configuration file. Otherwise, one or more RAID devices must be specified on the command line. For example:
raid0run -a
Starts all of the 'old' RAID0 RAID devices specified in /etc/raidtab. If only /dev/md1 should be started, the following command should be
used instead:
raidstart /dev/md1
OPTIONS -a, --all
Apply the command to all of the configurations specified in the config file.
-c, --configfile filename
Use filename as the configuration file (/etc/raidtab is used by default).
-h, --help
Displays a short usage message, then exits.
-V, --version
Displays a short version message, then exits.
NOTES
The raidtools are derived from the md-tools and raidtools packages, which were originally written by Marc Zyngier, Miguel de Icaza, Gadi
Oxman, Bradley Ward Allen, and Ingo Molnar.
BUGS
no known bugs.
