Note: I increased the cache size from 8M to 2G. Restarted the service, and it came up. Going to monitor it and see how it does.

Hi there, are you still having this issue? There are a number of improvements you can make to optimise the zabbix_server.conf file, also make sure your database is fully optimised too.

**um3n** · 28-02-2022, 15:03

You should also take a look to the logfiles of the zabbixserver, the dbms and the os itself.
Maybe you can get a hint about what causes this behavior.
