NetXMS Support Forum

Hi,

We are a Windows only environment. Right now we are using PRTG to monitor servers.

NetXMS looks very configurable and I am wondering if I can at least do more with it.

As the title mentions. Is it possible to set CPU thresholds such as that if CPU Usage goes over 80% for 15+ seconds, send alert listing top processes and Windows Event Logs.

PRTG has the something called Threshold Trigger that does the above conditions but it can only send generic alerts without any information attached. Even if I use a PowerShell script it can only capture one line string output.

Thanks!

Hi,

Coming from PRTG which has this function built in as a "Threshold Trigger", is it possible to monitor CPU usage and alert/log when CPU usage is 80% for at least 30 seconds?

Right now I have DCC parameter System.CPU.Usage running every second, in the threshold I do an average of 30 polls and see if it's > 80%.

Am I on the right track? The param System.CPU.Usage description says average cpu in the last minute. What would happen if I set it to run every second?

Thanks.
