Turn the logging level to debug for a cycle and look at when cacti tries to poll the process from the remote windows machine. What gets returned?

What cacti / cactid version?

I'm a bit confused by my ouput; according to several of the cpu usage graphs generated by this monitor; a process I am running is producing a value of 200+ ...


What does CPU Usage = 200+ mean? ...

Hmm, interesting. What os / versions?

1) Does that computer have several CPU's?
2) Is the application you're monitoring multi-cpu aware -- as in does it actually use both cpus?
3) Do any other processes return over 100% usage?

Basically this script collects the cpu usage every 5 minutes and does some math to spit out the percent used You can check the usage in task manager and showing the cpu time column.

OS: Win2K3 / Cacti 0.8.6h

1) dual proc hyperthreaded server.

2) yes.

3) no, on the box itself; via taskbar; no process is running over 100%

Turn the logging level to medium or high for a while so you can monitor what the script returns. Post several polling cycles worth of data for this process.

Are you monitoring any other processes that show over 100% utilization?

So far it's just a SQLserver doing it; The process im monitoring is the w3wp.exe process on all our w2k systems.

I'll post the logs soon.

Hi,ALL:

what mean is the value of hrSWRunPerfCpu?

Google is your friend.

Also, I put in the description into the data input method.

Quote:

# hrSWRunPerfCPU
"The number of centi-seconds of the total system's CPU resources consumed by this process. Note that on a multi-processor system, this value may increment by more than one centi-second in one centi-second of real (wall clock) time."

# hrSWRunPerfMem
"The total amount of real system memory allocated to this process."

our software developers have multiple processes running with the same name, can this script handle multiple processes with the same name?

The devs claim its not thier code causing the cpu to go 100% on a night and i'd like to setup this wonderful script to prove otherwise.

thanks

No, it takes the first name it finds with the lowest PID and then is locked onto that until a reindex.

If you want to micromanage the graphs, then you can change the template around so it goes off the process PID, so then you can specify what to monitor. Only downside is that it will no longer automatically update what to monitor when an application is closed/opened.

I don't really get the point.
That all works fine, until the machine is rebooted or a process killed and restarted.
After that i get:
Code:
01/30/2007 09:40:05 AM - CACTID: Poller[0] Host[7] DS[861] WARNING: Result from SNMP not valid. Partial Result: ...
