|
|
|
- This morning Tomcat crashed due to an OOM kill:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sep 06 00:00:24 server systemd[1]: tomcat9.service: A process of this unit has been killed by the OOM killer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sep 06 00:00:25 server systemd[1]: tomcat9.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=9/KILL
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sep 06 00:00:25 server systemd[1]: tomcat9.service: Failed with result 'oom-kill'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- According to the system journal, it was a Node.js dspace-angular process that tried to allocate memory and failed, thus invoking the OOM killer
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Currently I see high memory usage in those processes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ pm2 status

|
|
|
|
|
|
- I bet if I look in the logs I'd find some kind of heavy traffic on the frontend, causing high caching for Angular SSR

|
|
|
|
|
- Analyzing memory use in our DSpace hosts, which have 32GB of memory
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Effective cache of PostgreSQL is estimated at 11GB, which seems way high since the database is only 2GB
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Realistically this should be how we adjust, with PostgreSQL using ~8GB (or less) and each dspace-angular process pinned at 2GB...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> Total - Solr - Tomcat Postgres - Nginx - Angular
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 31366 − (1024×4.4) − 7168 − (8×1024) − 512 - (4x2048) = 2796.4 left...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I put some of these changes in on DSpace Test and will monitor this week

## 2024-09-10
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Some bot in South Africa made a ton of requests on the API and made the load hit the roof:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
# grep -E '10/Sep/2024:[10-11]' /var/log/nginx/api-access.log | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -h
|
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
|
149720 102.182.38.90
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- They are using several user agents so are obviously a bot:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I added them to the list of bot networks in nginx and the load went down
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade DSpace 7 Test to Ubuntu 24.04
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I did some minor maintenance to test dspace-statistics-api with Python 3.12
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I tagged version 1.4.4 and released it on GitHub
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2024-09-14
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Noticed a persistent higher than usual load on CGSpace and checked the server logs
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Found some new data center subnets to block because they were making thousands of requests with normal user agents
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I enabled HTTP/3 in nginx
|
|
|
|
|
|
- I enabled the SSR patch in Angular: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3110
