Wow, how's that for a vague title.
Here's the situation, our server is crashing lately once a week.
Purely for fun i decided to stop anything related to mail:
1057 /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner stop
1058 /etc/init.d/sendmail stop
1059 service spamassassin stop
Why are you running MailScanner and SA? MailScanner loads the SA
libraries directly. You don't need or want spamd.
/var/log/messages is your friend.
DAve
Then I ran the TOP command again. The server load dropped from 5-10
where it was:
load average: 5.88, 7.23, 8.05
Dropped down to under 1
Thoughts?
Please email me back directly so I can get the response quicker
