CA API Gateway

Issue/Introduction

We are recently observing performance issues with one of 2 gateways in our cluster. 

We are logging response times and they only seem to be high on a single node. 

We restarted the services and also rebooted both servers and are still having the issue.  I ran a data collection and have attached it here for your review.

Environment

Release : 10.0

Cause

The Primary SSG DB used by the Gateway is having an issue.  There is a known bug causing MySQL to crash. 

Stack analysis has threads blocked in MySQL, the MySQL log has the following crash logged 

2022-10-28T19:23:36.593814Z 5 [ERROR] [MY-010584] [Repl] Slave I/O for channel '': error connecting to master '[email protected]:3307' - retry-time: 100 retries: 4 message: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'HOSTNAME' (111), Error_code: MY-002003

19:25:16 UTC - mysqld got signal 11 ;

Most likely, you have hit a bug, but this error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.

Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out

where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went

terribly wrong...
