I've been running my DoD server for a few years and like most servers, it has evolved over time. The server has a lot of metamod plugins like Amxmod and HLGuard. Amxmod is loaded with many plugins. So, it's like looking for a needle in a hay stack. Here is the deal. The server has been stable for months. There are a few crashes now and then, but not too often. Serverdoc takes care of the occasional crash. It has run for weeks at a time without a single problem. Recently, I added a couple new Amxmod plugins. Then the server started its weird lock-up with the cpu usage at 100%. Of course, I removed the latest plugins and restored the configuration to its previous stable condition. Still, the server locks up at 100% cpu usage about once a day! When this happens, the server stops responding. The logs just end in mid stream when I manually restart it. I know I should start removing metamod plugins one at a time to try to isolate the problem. The list of addons is too long to list here. Questions: Is there a debug configuration so the logs have more information? Anybody see this symptom before? Thanks in advance. I know what I must now do and I'm not looking forward to it. I just thought some of the brains here might have a suggestion or good intuition.
