(1) Monitoring template

Processor-related monitoring template alarms

Processor-related monitoring template alarms are stored in the alarm table for PFM Windows Template Alarms [CPU] 09.00.

Table 3-15 Processor-related monitoring template alarms

Monitoring template alarmRecordFieldError thresholdWarning thresholdDescription
CPU UsagePICPU %>= 90> 80If the processor usage (%) continues to be high, the processor might be a system bottleneck. Any processes that are using the processor excessively must be found, and appropriate action taken. If no such processes exist, the system environment is not adequate for the processing. In this case, you might need to upgrade the processor or add other processors.
Processor QueuePIProcessor Queue Length>= 10>= 2If the number of request continues at or above the threshold, this indicates processor congestion.
SVR Processor QueuePI_SVRQQueue Length>= 3>= 2If the queue length continues at or above the threshold, this indicates significant load on the processor.

Processor-related monitoring template reports

Table 3-16 Processor monitoring template reports

Report nameDisplayed information
CPU Status (Multi-Agent)An hourly summary of the CPU usage by multiple agents for the last 24 hours
CPU TrendDaily CPU usage in the user mode and daily CPU usage in the kernel mode for the last month
CPU Trend (Multi-Agent)Daily CPU usage by multiple systems for the last month
CPU Usage SummaryA summary of the CPU usage on a minute-by-minute basis for the last hour

For details about settings for existing reports, see 6. Monitoring Templates.
