How can I see and terminate the active sessions on my mariadb?

0

Hi! We have a Mariadb rds (db.m5.xlarge) and lately I've seen that under "Current activity" the amount of sessions goes crazy high which creates a big problem for our app as it starts refusing new connections. When this is happening the CPU Util% remains low. My question is, how can I see and possibly terminate sessions through cli or the console?

Appreciate your help!

  • Closing connections server side is just a paliative solution. I highly suggest you to find which proccess are keeping open connection e fix it.
