Question vhostmng-find processe consume CPU

Nicola

Basic Pleskian
Hi,
does anyone know what is in command in question (complete command /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/vhostmng-find)? And possibly why might it consume so much CPU?

I find the parent process: /usr/bin/sw-engine -c /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/php.ini /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/scripts/task-async-executor.php -task-id 873

Thanks in advance

Hi, this process is consuming a lot of resources and we need to know if it's vital, if it can be throttled or anything else. It's regularly bringing down websites on our servers without SSDs.
 
I am encountering the same issue,
I have a VPS stuck practically every morning because of vhostmng-find process that is causing huge disk activity.

When launching iotop I see the process vhostmsg-find that performs 99.99% of the I/O with the user of one of my sites.

It seems that the only solution to me is to increase I/O with a more performant disk, but if there are alternatives they are welcome
since websites run regularly when Plesk maintenance tasks are stopped or deactivated.
 
I can see on my server, that vhostmng-find is called in two different code locations, the first one being ext-composer (it looks for composer.json files) and the second one being Plesk Core (it looks for package.json files).

Could you please enable debug, run the command plesk daily in console and check what pattern does the command that consumes CPU have?

E.g. in my case there was "what":["package.json"]:
Code:
[2022-04-01 14:13:24.439] 27937:6246ec53ef7b3 DEBUG [util_exec] [8a323fd21485219be1d0d2e7c4e722ed-0] Starting: vhostmng-find, stdin: {"where":
{"basedir":"\/var\/www\/vhosts\/abash.space","subdirs":["\/"],"depth":127,"follow_symlinks":false,"scope":["name"]},"run_as":{"user":"abs","gr
oup":"psacln"},"what":["package.json"],"options":{"match_full":true,"match_case":true},"output":{"format":"raw"}}

i've the same problem.

there are a lot of files in vhost-directory and i had run plesk repair all -y.
Is it possible that this is running in background and slows down the webserver a lot.
