I have rented a Centos6 server and running an Apache Tomcat 7 server with an Apache httpd server proxying it.
Sometimes my server gets locked and I cannot access it via putty even ping.
My question is: how can I be sure that this is about connection problems or application servers (I currently have a hibernate problem that causes the app servers not to respond because of unneeded heavy queries)?
Thanks in advance.
(PS: Fixing the problem by restarting the server)
EDIT: Following are the applications and props on my server:
*Apache httpd server --> proxy, *Apache Tomcat server --> app server, *Mysql DBMS
And got hd images appr. 69000 (99GB) serving from one folder.
EDIT2: The system comes back normal when I restart machine and run the servers again.
Do the hosting company provide any remote management or 'lights out' facilities ? Is this a VPS or a physical server? – user3788685 – 2016-03-11T18:49:55.147
Yeah they suggested three things:
And, I do want to learn if I must choose one of those three choices. If it is not certain that this is not a hardware problem then I will start to investigate the software part. – Bahadir Tasdemir – 2016-03-11T19:29:01.357
is this a physical or virtual server? & I presume you have root access – user3788685 – 2016-03-11T19:52:56.203
It is a virtual server hosted via a vendor, and yes I got root access. I thought It was a DDOS attack or something and set ip-tables and mod_evasive but nothing changed so it is not an attack. – Bahadir Tasdemir – 2016-03-12T13:03:29.007
it could be a number of things but I'll post you an answer with a few ideas & things you can do to monitor it. – user3788685 – 2016-03-12T15:42:16.343
