Hi for some reason I am getting the following message via email. Not sure why all of a sudden. Is there something I can look at or should I reboot the server?

Thanks for your advice.

Hello, @donnyforbes, The standard warning load threshold for this plugin is 5.0 for 1 minute,4.0 for 5 minutes and 3.0 for 15 minutes. So this WARNING - load average: 4.37, 4.18, 3.00 is saying that the load average on your localhost is above warning threshold. You can change these thresholds in Core Configuration Manager, under Servies. Or you may disable warning notifications for this host if you'd like.

PS: OK - 127.0.0.1: rta 0.056ms, lost 0%This is just a ping command output. Means that the host is UP, but the check_load service has a problem.
