Re: [hobbit] CPU Monitoring

If by track you mean the graph, it is still populated with the high load values, so that can be used to show management that over time this machine has had excessive utilization.

You may be able to find a thresshold where the machine bounces between green, yellow and red during the day. Be aware though that each time it goes between colors that a histlog entry is made (which may require more disk space, depending upon how often it bounces and how long you let it bounce).

Hi Rich,

But eventually you are going to want to improve resources.
At least when management asks for new equipment requests, etc...

You would not be able to track it if you disable the red.

Is there a way to keep the background green, but maybe use
another color to keep track of improvement areas.
Just brainstorming a bit.

Thanks...James

Set the thresholds high enough where they aren't red anymore. If you have no control over CPU Utilization on those systems there isn't much more that you can do.

Hello All,



I'm looking for best practices with regard to CPU monitoring.

I have systems where the CPU is overloaded, and we really

can't do much about it. What do most folks do with the CPU

monitor with regard to showing RED all the time?



Thanks.James
