CPU % per process

Hi guys.
What does this mean?

1 process [running on SERVER01] 2885.0 MB virtual, 1694.1 MB resident, 135.7% CPU (5 min average: 133.9%)(!!), 2394 process handles

135% ??? This is a windows server.

How it is calculated?

Thanks!!!

How many CPU cores has the server?
You can define in your process monitoring rule if 100% should be all CPU or a single core.

12 cores …

And how is your rule configured for the process monitoring?

… ‘cpu_average’: 5, ‘cpulevels’: (80.0, 90.0) …

Does it matter?
I cannot find any documentation regarding Windows consuming CPU per process. I thought 100% was the maximum. What the hell is 137% ? One can think of “1 core and a half”, but, i dont know. I could not find anything related.

Thank you!!!

This is not your real rule.
It must look like this.

If the marked option is not set then CMK uses i think the second one. A new process rule must have this option set to one of the two.

If you have multiple threads in one process they can have over 100% if 100% is the maximum value per CPU core.

Oh, i use main.mk.

From “parameters” in Wato.

State and count of processes…
Default Value
Process Matching: masvc.exe
Levels for process count: 0 processes, 0 processes, 3 processes, 4 processes
Levels on CPU utilization: 80.0%, 90.0%
CPU Averaging: 5 minutes
