IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3

Process CPU

Detects processes running with high CPU utilization. This policy detects when the amount of CPU used by a specific process becomes too high and requests manual intervention by prompting the user to chose a corrective action from a list of options. The policy performs the following steps:
  1. Wait until situation, NT_Process_CPU_Critical, is true.
  2. Display a message to every workgroup indicating that a process is using an excessive amount of CPU. Prompt the administrator to run a corrective action from a list of options.
    Note: The three options supplied in this policy are placeholders for customer provided corrective actions.
    • Run a Take Action command to send a message to the network administrator.
    • Run a Take Action command to send an email to the network administrator.
    • Run a Take Action command to stop the process.
