Dell Unity: uDoctor Scheduled tasks cause High CPU Utilization (User Correctable)

Résumé: Dell Unity: uDoctor Scheduled tasks cause High CPU Utilization (User Correctable)

Cet article concerne Cet article ne concerne pas Cet article n’est associé à aucun produit spécifique. Toutes les versions du produit ne sont pas identifiées dans cet article.

Symptômes

Everyday simultaneously Utilization on the Primary Storage Processor rises up to 90-100% and remains for around 15 minutes.

Cause

The CloudIQ Team has found that a specific Service Data Collection plugin may trigger multiple PSQL commands sometimes.
When this occurs, the PSQL queries cause massive CPU Utilization on the Primary Storage Processor, which is the SP responsible to run uDoctor.

Note: This does not occur when generating and gathering Service Data Collection manually, only affects uDoctor Scheduled tasks, such as the ones from Daily logs generated for CloudIQ.

Résolution

The solution for this issue is already in place and will be in the next Unity OE release version 5.0.3.
For more information regarding Dell EMC Unity OE versions and their release, refer to knowledge article Dell Unity OE Matrix

There is also a workaround that could be applied to mediate the issue until the code is released.
