<DIV><SPAN class=734012014-17012003><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am having some
difficulties lately with my spearhead server. I need to run 'top' in batch mode
and output the data to a log file so I can line up game server issues with
system demands. I believe this is done with the -b option but do I need to
specify the log file afterwards? For example:'top -s -b
toplog' . And if so, is there a default logfile for
'top', or do I create one?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=734012014-17012003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, has anyone
experienced crashes that seem related to CPU usage reaching near max? As I've
written recently, I believe my spearhead server is crashing shortly after a
major CPU spike for the spearhead process (from around 50% to 98-99%). It
usually happens during 'prime-time' (8-12 pm EST) when the server is completely
full. I have reduced the max players from 26 to 22 to see if this helps. I know
my machine should easily handle 26 players (PIV 2 Ghz and 512 Mb ram 10 Mbit
pipe)......</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
