The utilization may drop for a short period but then get pinned again. Is there any check out there that can check for a process consuming 100% of a core, even if overall CPU load is low eg in an 8 core box, and alert against that? thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world <a href="http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/" target="_blank">http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/</a> _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list <a href="mailto:Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net">Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a> <a href="https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users" target="_blank">https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users</a> ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null </blockquote></div> -- Alex Dehaini Developer Team - <a href="http://www.konolabs.com">www.konolabs.com</a> Site - <a href="http://www.alexdehaini.com">www.alexdehaini.com</a> Email - <a href="mailto:alexdehaini@gmail.com">alexdehaini@gmail.com</a> </div>
