[cobalt-users] RAQ Alert Message



I got this message from my RAQ2:

"The CPU in the Cobalt server is overloaded; it is attempting to do too many
things at the same time.  An amber light means that there are 3 times as
many tasks waiting to be executed as are actually running, and a red light
means that there are 6 times as many.  Consider moving some of the services
to other Cobalt servers, or reduce the complexity of the CGI scripts running
on the Cobalt server itself."

When I got the message, I logged into the GUI and everything was normal.
"Over the past fifteen minutes, the CPU has been lightly loaded [ load
average 0.59 ]"
"Over the past fifteen minutes, virtual memory has been lightly used [ 2.27
swaps/second ] "

Running "top" I see:

 11:41am  up 20 days,  6:24,  1 user,  load average: 0.22, 0.08, 0.31
38 processes: 37 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  1.3% user,  1.7% system,  0.0% nice, 97.0% idle
Mem:   31064K av,  26996K used,   4068K free,  14164K shrd,   1272K buff
Swap: 130748K av,   7164K used, 123584K free                 12372K cached

Any ideas on where to look to see what was happening, maybe FTP logs, from
11:00 AM when the message was sent by the server?
