CPU spikes on XG115 r3 running as ASG Software license ...

Question

I don't recall seeing these before updating to 9.715-4 ... 
 (I have also recently upgraded from 4GB to 8GB RAM, but why would that cause anything like this)

They appear spaced evenly every 3 hours, and always start 10 after, so for example 17:10:00 ... 
 (These are not traffic related, normally I've seen this box average 2% over the span of a few days)

Whatever it was, it now seems to be resolved ... 
 
 I have rebooted, and did a touch /forcefsck as well as cleared log files and also did a postgresql rebuild.

Thank you for your time!

Hi Escape75 , mdw.plx is the middleware taking 99% of CPU Check the following in the shell: 1.) ls -lah /var/storage/cores 2.) tail -f /var/log/mdw-debug.log 3.) tail -f /var/log/confd.log 4.) also you can try restating that service: /etc/init.d/mdw restart And additionally check your DNS settings, this could lead to due misconfiguration as well. Also try fine tuning the rules and groups.
