Assign CPU to Customers

[cancer10]

Hi,

For the past 2 weeks I am facing heavy CPU consumption on my Linux server. I saw the server logs and found that mysql was consuming the most CPU.

I was wondering if I can assign individual CPU usage to my customer? if yes how?

I know I can do this on a plesk control panel but I am on a linux machine with WHM running and cent os 4.4.

Does anyone know how to assign individual CPU to customers/resellers under WHM? if not any alternate method to avoid CPU consumption?


Thanx for you help in advance

What % of CPU consumption is considered normal?

Well that depends on what kind of environment it is, but if so much is being used that it's affecting performance for an extended amount of time then it's too much. Your customer needs to look at getting a VPS (assuming that the server is optimized properly, of course).

You can only do this for vps's, not shared and reseller hosting customers. Obviously if they are overloading your server, give them a recommendation to upgrade or move to a vps/dedicated.

Since its the heavy amount of mysql consumption, can we do something about it?
