Applies to

Issue

  • High CPU across all nodes and Exempt Domain is 1000+%
  • Multiple volume-get-iter zapi calls are seen under APACHE-ACCESS.GZ log:

<client_ip> <cluster_ip> 4294967295 <user> [date] "POST /servlets/netapp.servlets.admin.XMLrequest_filer HTTP/1.1" 200 1569200 11993904 - 0 + volume-get-iter

  • Held connections are seen in APACHE-ERROR.GZ log

[date] [mpm_event:notice] [pid x:tid x] Holding a connection from ipspace ID -1, remote address <client_ip> while 119 others are held and 80 are active

[date] [mpm_event:notice] [pid x:tid x] A keepalive connection from ipspace ID -1, remote address <client_ip> is being suspended between requests while the 80-connection limit has been reached. (80 active, 120 waiting) Clients should limit the number of concurrent keepalive connections to avoid large performance penalties and/or failures.
