Re: Installing ScreenConnect on CentOS 7
So I finally had the time to convert my ScreenConnect install from Windows based to CentOS. That process worked jsut fine and you can look at th elink above for how to install it all.
Now my system is running and it is laggy. Giving
htop
a look, I do believe I need to up the memory. How much do you think would be sufficient?
[root@bnasc ~]# free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 1929 1445 365 1 118 410 Swap: 1791 871 920 [root@bnasc ~]#
The system has just over 200 machines with about 130 online.

Check the output of
sysctl vm.swappiness
I usually set mine to 10 on my linux systems...
vi /etc/sysctl.d/90-swappiness.conf
content:vm.swappiness = 10
then, reload the configuration and no reboot is required:
sysctl --system -p
(note in the command above, there's 2 dashes before system and one before the letter p).
This makes the linux kernel not use the swap quite as aggressively.

I set it to 10 when I built the system.
Some thread or another around here long time ago mentioned it.
[root@bnasc ~]# sysctl vm.swappiness vm.swappiness = 10 [root@bnasc ~]#

wow....

boot up is busy.

From the conversations I had with SC on the matter,... it seems that the Client Agent chatter (calling home, checking updating version) can cause the system to be 'laggy'... but once done, it'll quiet down.
@scottalanmiller would know on this.

2 minutes and 40 seconds before it stabilized.

The initial post and comment were made with a system that had been online for 16 hours.
And the Windows system that I migrated from never had this lag.

How long does it take for things to quiet down?

About 3 minutes.

After 10 minutes, it has been sitting unchanged with the memory usage. CPU spikes to 100% a few times that I noticed.
I intentionally used 4GB here to make sure nothing should feel the need to go to swap.

At 2GB, we never see it need it all. It's decently lean.

Been watching things and it seems to need another CPU. Everytime I click on something on the webpage, the CPU spikes to 100%.

I think that we use two.

Since we are having issue with our system
$ sysctl vm.swappiness vm.swappiness = 30

Why not go lower to say... 10 ?

Just checked - It's 30...
$ uptime 17:48:06 up 1 day, 3:02, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.07 $ sysctl vm.swappiness vm.swappiness = 30 ~~
