High system load at a set time each day

[ukscotth]

Hi,

Each day at 1pm my server experiences high load which virtually brings it to a stop, ive tried viewing what processes are causing it but I cant seem to work it out. There are no crons running on the server apart from my ones according to directadmin.

Is there anything else i can check ? is there a way to check what users have scheduled backups ?

Thanks,

Scott.

Have you tried using mytop to see what processes are causing it?

We have a server with a customer with a very large account. We also have installatron installed and this customer is making automatic backups via Installatron. This also sometimes brings mysql at a higher load at night times. But we can see that as we are using mod_ruid so we see the customers name in mytop when installatron is running for him.
Maybe it's something like that?
