Stop Start collector features in GUI just keep spinning

[KarlH]

A collector with high cpu usage. It's reporting, procs are up.. the stop start  seems to be very short in duration what is it actually doing?

Thanks

Hi @KarlH ,

Looks like the processes are crashing and recovering on its own. 

You would need to check which process #phstatus and probe further on the error.  Especially check for unknown events and events with large length/volume.

Ok thank you Prem!

Hi @KarlH,

We've seen this behavior on Collectors that have not enough resources for the amount of logs. In case of a VM, try to give it more RAM, CPU or a better drive (SSD, in case you're using HDD). Or use multiple Collectors instead of a single one to distribute the load.

Best,

Christian
