QUESTION POSED ON: 06 March 2007
I'm currently managing a distributed system with nearly 450 Lotus Domino servers connected to a central Lotus Domino server. Although the various applications on the system are running independently, the central Lotus Domino server will only store the data of distributed Lotus Domino servers via replication; the servers are facing slow performance and failure on agent managers.
Upon checking, the CPU utilization is not that heavy. During peak period, it will only top out until 55% of CPU utilization. There are also times when the server will just crash.
As for the agent manager, it will not manage the scheduled agents accordingly. In fact, agents do not run on time or do not run at all. We enabled seven agent managers to manage around 80 scheduled and triggered agents.
First, is there any way or tools I might use to troubleshoot the slow performance of the Lotus Domino server -- other than analyzing the rip file? Second, why can't the agent managers manage all the agents accordingly? Are seven managers sufficient enough for the agent managers to manage 80 to 100 triggered and scheduled agents? Also, is there a specific maintenance exercise that can keep the agent manager in good shape and well-managed?
