TACACS latency

[bvj197222]

My ACS-server is experiencing these errors (started a couple of hours before new years eve):

RADIUS Latency (milliseconds) =  3344.82 , TACACS Latency (milliseconds) = 0.00)

Due to this error I also got this errror:

Category = CSCOacs_Internal_Operations_Diagnostics, Severity = ERROR, Message Text = Could not write to local storage file

What do I do to correct the RADIUS Latency error? I don't want to restart the server cause then I will throw out all other users that have been athenticated.

More information:

I have received 3.000 errors since Dec 31 10 PM. It is continuously failing, and I have also gotten the message "More than 50 auth errors last 10 minutes". Everything due to a slow TACAS-service - or at least so it seams.

I am attaching the ACS instance health summary. According to this there is a high memory utilization. I check using the cli and it says 143 mb available. Not so much considering there's 4 gb on the server:

***ACS**02/admin# show mem
total memory:    4151260 kB
free memory:      146512 kB
cached:           420308 kB
swap-cached:           0 kB

How do I see exactly what is using all the memory?

Again I answer my own question:

CSCtg12399 Bug Details

ACS 5.1 doesn't support 2008 R2 Server for AD.

Symptom:

The customer is looking to migrate their Active Directory environment to Windows 2008 Server R2.

Conditions:

The customer uses AD for authentication.

Continue using Windows 2003/2008 until 2008 R2 support is available. Contact TAC and link case to this bug id.

I will upgrade to 5.2. More info here, https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2028496.
