Detailed Monitoring Of CPU on Windows

Hello, we are willing to monitor CPU on windows like, if there is 10s continues 100% utilization of CPU it should go to SOFT critical state, and also take full processlist. Any recommendations? for first problem we have to lower check interval to 10s? or other ways possible?

Hi.

You can look at the RTC-Checks in CheckMK.

Real-time checks: Introducing checking in one second resolution
or
Linux check_mk_agent: now able to execute plugins for real time checks

thank you @ChristianM , what about grabbing processlist, like top 3 cpu utilizers.

To make question more clear, How we can decide which process causes spikes on Windows server?

Hi there,

I think you have a couple of options:

  1. You can build the RTC in such a way that it always captures the top x consumers, or
  2. You can create a custom action that captures the top x consumers if and when the monitor goes into a warning or critical state.

Sorry I can’t offer any concrete advice on implementing either option.

Jason
