Hi, We are running MySQL version 3.23.43 on one of our servers and have some stability problems the occur about every 1-2 days. When it happens everythings keeps working but the load goes up to about 80. After stopping and restarting MySQL everything goes back to normal (load average about 0.5). There are usually only a few connection open at the same time (about 20) and we have no slow or "heavy duty" queries. Is there anyone who had a similar problem? We're not sure what could possibly cause this.
Some info about the system: Dell PowerEdge 8450 4 x Xeon 700 4GB of RAM Intel GBit ethernet connection Software: Base RedHat 7.2 installation Unpatched kernel 2.4.17 The database-files are placed on a dedicated raid-5 disk. Note: Displaying the processlist does not reveal any unusual or special queries when the problem occurs. They just run slower because of the high load.
