Server Gone Crazy!
I am totally out of clues
My server has gone totally NUTZ on me and not only that, everything in it has gone crazy too.
Let me tell you what kind of server I have and etc 1st.
I have a Dual Xeon, 1GB RAM, 2 80GB HDD
The server is running on Fedora Core 1 (Yarrow)
It also has cPanel installed and running.
Here's my problem. The server is basically only serving 1 HUGE site, which is a gaming site. Eg. Tips on games, Discussion on Games and etc. Nothing to do with playing games there.
Anyway, I do not know what happened and where the fault lies but as far as I know, when the site is up, the load for the server (TOP), gives at least 20 to about 45, which is rediculous. It only has about 100-200 people on the site at 1 go, nothing great.
When I suspend the site, the load goes all the way down to about 0.XX which is kinda a known fact.
Other than that, everything seems to be failing and going down very often. Previously, it was just the HUGE load, we did nothing much about it. Now, it seems that even when the site is suspended, httpd, eximstats, ftpd and etc seems to be failing.
Previously, it was just that when there was too many people on the server and the load goes too high, things start failing but now, even without ppl on the server and etc, everything seems to be failing.
I don't even know what the hell to do or to think of anymore.
Could someone out there who knows what he's doing lend a helping hand? It would be very much appericiated. Our site is not a profiting site and it's just as a hobby, so there's no money involved.
Please help if you could.
Thanks.
