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 alarm	Record	Field	Error threshold	Warning threshold	Description
CPU Usage	PI	CPU %	>= 90	> 80	If 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 Queue	PI	Processor Queue Length	>= 10	>= 2	If the number of request continues at or above the threshold, this indicates processor congestion.
SVR Processor Queue	PI_SVRQ	Queue Length	>= 3	>= 2	If 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 name	Displayed information
CPU Status (Multi-Agent)	An hourly summary of the CPU usage by multiple agents for the last 24 hours
CPU Trend	Daily 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 Summary	A summary of the CPU usage on a minute-by-minute basis for the last hour
