Let me briefly summarize our case. I set up a two noded cluster both on RHEL 5.7 x86_64 on HP DL380 G7 (96 GB RAM, 4 Intel Xeon X5675 / 6 cores) with EMC VMAX storage (on dm-multipath). We launched our Tibco service in December which has been working so far without any issues. A few days ago our customers reported that the service is "slow" - as a system engineer I could not really do anything with such a statement, so our application guys deployed a small tool which sends messages to the message bus, and also measures the message delivery delay. Most of the times it's around 1-2 ms, but surprisingly found extra high values, which have affect on dependant applications: 2012-02-08 22:12:31,919 INFO [Main] Message sent in: 1ms 2012-02-08 22:12:33,974 ERROR [Main] Message sent in: 1053ms 2012-02-08 22:12:34,978 INFO [Main] Message sent in: 2ms 2012-02-08 22:12:35,980 INFO [Main] Message sent in: 1ms At the same time iostat show high utilization: 2012-02-08 22:12:33 avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle 2012-02-08 22:12:33 0,12 0,00 0,37 4,00 0,00 95,51 2012-02-08 22:12:33 2012-02-08 22:12:33 Device: rrqm/s wrqm/s r/s w/s rMB/s wMB/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz await svctm %util 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdb 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sde 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdh 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdk 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdn 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdq 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdt 0,00 0,00 56,00 0,00 0,34 0,00 12,43 0,12 2,21 2,20 12,30 2012-02-08 22:12:33 sdw 2,00 39,00 337,00 28,00 1,84 0,12 10,98 2,40 2,75 2,34 85,40 2012-02-08 22:12:33 dm-5 0,00 0,00 394,00 201,00 2,18 0,79 10,19 2,98 1,94 1,65 97,90 >From our service point of view these are off-peak times, less messages were directed to EMS.
