High CPU-load with SFOS 17.1.2 MR-2 and HA

Which leads to the next question when is MR3 planned for release?

Ian

Hey Ian,

Unfortunately, no release date news available yet. Please stay tuned for the latest.

I was told the MR3 firmware will be released this or next week, with the usual <may change at any time> disclaimer. Been in the ignore queue for almost an hour now trying to get a download link to MR1 so I can at least restore a working backup. Getting fed up with XG.

Got the CPU problem also with another different system, a SG230 running SFOS, no way to reduce the load by disable RED or downgrade the firmware (and also factory reset). In my case a complete install from scratch via USB was the solution. But still without RED.

To update this thread for our community:

This KB article has been published regarding this issue.

Regards,

SFOS 17.1.3 MR3 Released

Not sure this bug is fixed in MR-3 ...  High CPU fix included is this one: NC-36927 [RED] High CPU caused by gethainfo.

I tried the update on a XG125 HA-Cluster today.

But the heavy load is still there, like in MR2.

Now it's not the HA-process, there are a lot of worker processes.

Current load with no traffic and about 25 RED-tunnel ~4.10

And now?

EDIT 2h after the update:

top - 14:23:20 up 1:47, 1 user, load average: 2.99, 2.87, 3.11
Tasks: 412 total, 1 running, 410 sleeping, 0 stopped, 1 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.8%us, 0.2%sy, 0.0%ni, 98.8%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.2%si, 0.0%st
Mem: 4010540k total, 3709820k used, 300720k free, 190656k buffers
Swap: 2029868k total, 0k used, 2029868k free, 1057480k cached

Looks like idle is okay, load is still high?

EDIT the next morning:

I took a look at the LOAD AVERAGE from the past 4 weeks, and the crazy thing is load was minimal higher with SFOS 17.1.1 MR-1, now it's about ~2,9, but the system has a slow and not well performing feeling - I mean only the WebAdmin - services are performing well.
