To view the resources usage for your website, kindly log into your Wordpress admin dashboard from Exabytes Client Area.
Resource available for checking:
CPU Usage
Physical Memory Usage
Entry Processes
Number of Processes
IOPS
I/O Usage
Virtual Memory
CPU Usage : 100%
CPU Usage is one of the indicator for speed of loading for website.
Hitting CPU Usage 100% will cause your site to slow down until CPU Usage is below 100%.
No error will be displayed for hitting CPU Usage limit.
Physical Memory Usage : 2.0G
Physical Memory depends on the package you subscribed.
“508 Resource Limit Reached” or “500 Internal Server Error” may be displayed for hitting Physical Memory Usage limit.
Entry Processes : 20
Entry Processes is the number of concurrent Apache connections a website can sustain.
The word 'concurrent' refers to processes happening at the same time.
You could have hundreds and thousands of connections but having all connections performing tasks simultaneously is unlikely.
Hitting this limit generally hints that the site is getting hit hard by bots and crawlers.
“503 Service Temporarily Unavailable” will be displayed for hitting Entry Processes.
Number of Processes : 100
Number of Processes refers to total number of active processes allowed on a domain.
Services below are examples of the processes:
HTTPD (website connections)
PHP processes
SMTP/IMAP/Sendmail
Cronjobs etc
Hitting this limit will require one process to end for the next one to be generated.
Apache 500 or 503 errors will be displayed for hitting Number of Processes limit.
IOPS : 2048
IOPS refers to Input/Output per second. This resource limits the total number of read or write operations per second.
This limit does not usually get hit as other resource will be hit before IOPS is hit. If it does hit, it will be queued for the next operation after the current one ends.
One of the indicator is slow loading of web pages.
I/O Usage : 2048
I/O Usage refers to Input and Output. I/O Usage refers to the work done by drives to read and write data.
Hitting this limit will cause website to slow down (but still available) until the usage has decreased.
