Hi,
Is there any way i can monitor if any process uses more than 50% of CPU in AIX.
Thank you,
Srikanth.

Re: Monitor if any process reaches more than 50% of CPU
You would likely have to write a custom script that calls top or ps and scraps the data. However I highly doubt there is a script already in place for this, as it is somewhat arbitrary results being that it would be likely completely separate processes each time.
Nagios-Plugins maintainer exclusively, unless you have other C language bugs with open-source nagios projects, then I am happy to help! Please pm or use other communication to alert me to issues as I no longer track the forum.

We haven't actually implemented it yet, but we were just looking at this plugin the other day that looks like it might work for you. I don't believe it tells you if a process is using over 50%, but it does list the top 5 CPU heavy processes: http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... rs/details

Nice find snapon, you could write a wrapper script around that one to pull down the top 5 processes, and alert off of them.
