atlantis service hangs

[ivomarino]

it may happen from time to time that some services on atlantis freeze or hang, this issue is here for starting to debug such situations. So actually when atlantis freezes we should check this way:

• ping atlantis, does the VM respond?
• ssh atlantis, possible to login via ssh?
• open https://atlantis/lb, is the LB running? u: admin p: admin
• open http://atlantis, are haproxy, varnish and apache2 running (note: no HTTPS here)?
• open http://atlantis:8080, is apache2 only running (note: no HTTPS here)?

at this point we can debug via ssh to see if some process is not running anymore:

ssh atlantis "ps aux | grep apache2"

the basic idea behind this is to understand which component has crashed in order to start investigation.

ping atlantis, does the VM respond? yes ssh atlantis, possible to login via ssh? No open https://atlantis/lb, is the LB running? No open http://atlantis, are haproxy, varnish and apache2 running? no open http://atlantis:8080, is apache2 only running? no

I had to restart appflow a few times today while working on Swisscom.

Seems a memory hit limit to me, how much ram does OS X have?
