  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Slow server, very high memory usage what to do?

New Pleskian
Hello,

One of my wordpress websites was reacting very slow and i thought i was a particular theme. But when i checked the plesk panel > health monitor i notice this, see images.
- Now a lot of my websites are acting slow :(
- None of my websites has high traffic
- I host 55 websites
- Is it possible that the "slowness" just happens at one particular website first? And others react slow a couple of days later?

What can i do on my own? It's saturday and i can't reach my hosting company and i need to develop another website on sunday?
Which log files should i look into? If i have a solution how can i prevent this in the future?

My own server maintenance normally just exists of deleting huge error_log files per domain.


Any tips, suggestions?
Regards
