Summary: 

How to use SystemEDGE to get data for CPU or Memory utilization of a specific process.

 

 

 

 

Environment

Release: SYSPAG99000-5.7-Systemedge
Component:

Resolution

1.  For memory utilization create a threshold monitor using processEntry:  processMEM

This reports the percentage (0-100) of real memory used by this process.

Example in sysedge.cf for (process calc.exe)

monitor processEntry calc processMEM 18 0x0 60 absolute > 95 '' '' processEntry calc processMEM warning

2.  For CPU utilization create a threshold monitor using processEntry:  processTimePermil

Example in sysedge.cf for (process calc.exe)

watch process procTimePermil 'calc' 1234 0x0 60 absolute > 950000 '' '' processEntry calc processTimePermil warning

Here are values as a guideline for creating the threshold:

1%=10000
10%=100000
100%=1000000
