Hey! I have a strange condition in one of the servers that I don't where to start looking. I login to the server via SSH (cant doit any other way) and anything that I type is slow HTTP sessions timeout waiting for screen redraw. So, the server is acting "slow".
server is bare metal. no virtual services. no alarms in the disk raid
note: server was restarted because of power failure.
