CPU and Performance

[subba5678]

Hi,
I am monitoring the System CPU Load in windows for every 5 Mins with the Pre-defined template " Processor load5 " . I want to create a trigger if my CPU utilization reaches to 95% when i tried to create a trigger if found a pre-defined template as

Processor load5 "5" means for "5" Mins
Functional: Last value>N
N=5 "if the CPU Load is greater than 5"

According to the template i guess "5" = "50%" (system CPU Load) , with that Parameters i replaced "5" with the "9.5" = "95%" , Finally i got a trigger by replacing with "9" and in the Trigger Description i inserted the macro last Item value ({ITEM.LASTVALUE}) and in the Alert i saw last value as "11" so what does "11" means . Please help me in this as because i want a trigger if the CPU load reaches to "95%" . . Please help me out ..



Thanks and Regards in Advance.

Hi,

If you are looking for a value that varies between 0 and 100% depending on CPU utilization, CPU load as defined in Windows template is not what you are looking for.

You should use system.cpu.util instead of system.cpu.load.

Check system.cpu.util and system.cpu.load description in http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...s#zabbix_agent for more details.
It has also a link to Wikipedia page describing CPU load concept : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_%28computing%29

Hope this helps

Hi,
Thanks for the reply , I already gone through the Documentation (http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/config) and i was unable to figure it out how to monitor and create a trigger on the CPU utilization for Windows host , I kindly request you to post the parameter for monitoring the CPU utilization

Thanks in Advance,

Hi:

I think that you need this:

system.cpu.util[all,idle]

This will show you the idle of all processors in %.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply . i want the Trigger for CPU Utilization not for Idle . Please help me out , As because we are taking the zabbix to the live Production to monitor 100 servers

Thanks,
