[Xymon] CPU USAGE DISPLAY (CPU Statistics)

[Schwab, Jos]

I am saying that it looks like with CPULOOP=1set properly that cpu stats are averaged across a very short time; more in ‘realtime’, the way I’d like. So all is good. Thank you all for your help.

So top doesn't match the behavior described in man page, or the version you have doesn't support the feature?

Are you trying this from the command line or from the Xymon client config?

Does this work:

CPULOOP=1 top -b -n 1

On the only system available to me right now (old-ish Debian) top doesn't seem to support this.  Instead:

$ top -b -n2 | sed '1,/^top/d'

You could try adding this into your xymonclient-linux.sh script on your client host.

Note that this will make each run take 5 seconds longer. Probably not a problem though.
