Yet another Nginx story

Last night one of my friend gtalk me and complaining about his vps is slow and lagging. Further checking the process is highly spike where load average: 173.68, 165.51, 146.09 which is abnormal.

I'm thinking the MySQL is consuming all the resources and when I try to restart the process it's come to timeout. No chance at all.. I tried to stop httpd, also timeout and kill come to my hand :)

kill -9 [processid]

After restart httpd, the load is still high around 4 to 6. I plan to replace Apache with latest Nginx and using php-cgi for communicate with PHP. Surprisingly after I start Nginx the process come to 0.35 not even close to 1..

And that how Nginx act as a hero..

Building a KVM Proxy

Traditionally we seldomly connect our KVM from the port directly to the server that consists of usb for keyboard and mouse, vga cable for display purposes. More advanced you may have an experience using the iKVM which connect all you kvm port from the internet where you can have a remote location as long as you have the internet connection. When technology evolve, physical server are becoming obsolete since we have the virtualization technology. Since that to access your virtual machine (vm) are more easier. Instead of using SSH, like a Xen hypervisor, the Xen itself can host as a KVM server and map to the vm on different port as configured from the config file.
