Hi Daniel,
Thanks a lot for your answer!
I'll create a script to check this every minute, and restart those service
in case of death.
What can be the root cause of this? Can this happen because of the night
backup process, pushing the disks to have higher I/O? (higher is less than
30%, but is higher than the usual, that is almost 1%)
Thanks again, and best regards,
HeCSa.
