Identify cause of high process load

[Tonio]

Hello,

I'm a newbie to Zabbix but I've carefully read the manual.
I understand that Zabbix can alert me if the process load is too high on one of my machines, but can it help me identify the cause of this load ?
What if the load is back to normal by the time I get back to the machine ?
Does it save a history of the most CPU-intensive processes ?

Thanks,

Tonio.

Nope... it won't tell you what is causing it to be overloaded, just that it's overloaded. It's up to you to look at logs and hopefully catch the overload while it's happening.
