Hi,

Can i increase the load average limit on manual backup and restore tasks?

For me is too dificult keep load average below 2, my servers always are on 3-4.

Thanks for your work!

Permanent option: Increase core count on your server …

# Checking load average
la=$(cat /proc/loadavg |cut -f 1 -d ' ' |cut -f 1 -d '.')
i=0
while [ "$la" -ge "$BACKUP_LA_LIMIT" ]; do
    echo -e "$(date "+%F %T") Load Average $la"
    sleep 60
    if [ "$i" -ge "15" ]; then
        la_error="LoadAverage $la is above threshold"
        echo "Error: $la_error" |$SENDMAIL -s "$subj" $email $notify
        sed -i "/ $user /d" $HESTIA/data/queue/backup.pipe
        check_result $E_LA "$la_error"
    fi
    la=$(cat /proc/loadavg |cut -f 1 -d ' ' |cut -f 1 -d '.')
    (( ++i))
done

This is the check
