CPU load stand-by member - QLS 250

Lesley — Wed, 03 Jan 2024 10:30:08 GMT

Hi everyone,

We have a new cluster running in high availability (active , stand-by). And I can see that I have the same, or a bit less load then the active member. Normally I expect less load on stand-by member (maybe some for session sync).

I run R81.20 take 41 on Quantum LightSpeed 250 , we do not use Maestro. Is this something typical for this new hardware?

Active, top:

Does CPview yield different output for you? (Refer sk180299.)
