AshleyLee Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I've got bit of odd situation, WMI Provider Host started sucking up CPU cycles sometime in the last 24hr. After some googling and digging I found the event Log for WMI-Activity is full of Errors and this appears to be the problem. All the errors are tied to ARK Server Process IDs. I'm not entirely sure what's up with this, but maybe a patch in the last 24 hours borked something. What little googling has told me is that this is a application problem not a server problem per se. WMI Provider Host basically sucked up all available cpu resources until I set it's affinity to 1 thread and priority to low. At this setting it sucks up an entire core/thread. but doesn't crush the server. Windows Server 2019 Standard E5-2670 8c/16t 128gb Ram Example error event. Update: So while it does affect modded and non-modded servers modded servers seem to make it much worse, not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkfields Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 error 80041032 looks like a timeout error. It looks like a DB "SELECT" query is timing out here. One of the recommended "solutions" is to open a DOS prompt as administrator and sfc /scannow On completion, sfc might report that it wasn't able to fix the error it found. If so, then...
