Hi, We have installed RHEL AS 3 on our new server (HP Proliant DL 760 G2 - 4 Xeon CPUs 2.7GHz/2MB and 24 GM RAM). I see 50% of CPU being used for "system" calls even though the server is doing nothing. I guess, it has to do with some kernel parameters. Can anybody tell me where should I start from to troubleshoot/tune this issue? A typical vmstat output looks like this.. procs memory swap io system cpu r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa 1 1 5156 51736 11956 23781184 0 0 50 80 27 65 3 43 46 7 1 2 5156 51744 11700 23781440 0 0 0 16 207 611 5 40 55 0 1 0 5156 51732 11700 23781440 0 0 0 0 123 383 2 47 51 0 1 0 5156 52504 11732 23781440 0 0 0 40 142 351 2 40 56 2 1 0 5156 52504 11732 23781440 0 0 0 0 120 266 2 45 53 0 thanks nagarjuna **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer ***************** This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
