I’ve been having this problem past month with my CentOS Linux servers. Apache goes up to a full 100% load on Sundays. I have read at 2 places that it is logrotate that causes it. And I found a possible solution to it at Paralells. It suggest you change a line in /etc/logrotate.d/httpd.

From:

/sbin/service httpd reload > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true

to

/sbin/service httpd restart > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true


I really hope this workaround works, so I don’t have to monitor the servers at all during the weekend. I will confirm this later.
