Understand what caused CPU intensive use

[p44]

Dear all,

few hours ago System Info > CPU Usage showed a peak relative to CPU intensive use, around 1:30 AM, aobut 24%.

How can I reconstruct what caused the CPU heavy use?

I downloaded "Full Log" but it seems to have only few raws about healthcheck

How I can understand and investigate what caused CPU intensive use? Eg. some app, or process, or something else...

Thank's a lot!

Take a look at the system info log. What happend at this time? I suspect app/cloudron update or a cronjob ^^

@subven Thank's ! Where I can find system info log? Normally app/cloudron update or cronjob takes very few resources... maximum 4-5% CPU use... Not 24%, that's why I want to try to better understand...

Manually (SSH on box): https://docs.cloudron.io/troubleshooting/#logs or for a quick look (utility of this depends how long ago the event was), go to the "System Info" page from the menu (dropdown from username) and there's a logs button which will give you the box logs

@jimcavoli you can also just download the full log from within the web viewer -->

@subven When I download full logs I got only few raws in past hours, and not a complete list. Thank's

@jimcavoli I'll go to check /home/yellowtent/platformdata/logs/ and try to better understand.

Given that it's less than 30%, this can be quite hard to track down. It can be anything (any app).

@girish Yes, in fact I did not understand... To many logs to check with vi
