That would be incorrect though, no? 548% of theoretical 2400% usage is 548/2400 = 0.2408 = 24%, not 4% of total CPU, obviously.
what you guys are computing instead, 2400% / 548% ~= 4 is the inverted fraction version of the actual number. numerator and denominator need to be swapped. -t On Jan 5, 2012, at 4:33 AM, Martin Pala wrote: > Yes, Wayne is correct and the usage is computed exactly as he described. > Monit takes the summary of all CPU cores as 100%. > > Regards, > Martin > > > > On Jan 5, 2012, at 10:54 AM, Lawrence, Wayne wrote: > >> May be wrong and i am sure someone will correct me if i am but it appears >> the way the cpu usage is worked out against the multiple cores is why you >> are getting this output. >> >> The way i worked it out is the way i believe monit works it out and the >> maths sort of make sense. >> >> 24 cores 24 x 100% = 2400 >> >> so if you divide 2400 by your usage from top >> >> 2400 / 578 = 4.2 >> >> which would give you your percentage shown in monit. >> >> Regards >> >> Wayne >> >> >> >> >> On 5 January 2012 08:13, Tom Pepper <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hello: >> >> I have a number of high-CPU processes that run on 24-core boxes configured >> e.g.: >> >> check process emr-enc01-01 with pidfile >> /var/run/tada_liveenc_emr-enc01-01.pid >> start program = "/usr/local/tada/launch.sh -c emr-enc01-01" >> stop program = "/bin/bash -c 'kill -s SIGTERM `/bin/cat >> /var/run/tada_liveenc_emr-enc01-01.pid`'" >> if totalmem > 80% then alert >> if totalmem > 90% then restart >> if totalcpu < 10% for 10 cycles then alert >> >> These processes create pidfiles which match correctly in top as: >> >> PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND >> >> 1710 root 20 0 3064m 1.2g 7808 S 578 15.8 47:31.53 tada_liveenc >> >> 1866 root 20 0 2954m 1.3g 7804 S 545 16.7 45:18.52 tada_liveenc >> >> >> However, monit sees these as a completely different total CPU usage: >> >> Process 'emr-enc01-01' >> status Running >> monitoring status Monitored >> pid 1710 >> parent pid 1 >> uptime 8m >> children 0 >> memory kilobytes 1372300 >> memory kilobytes total 1372300 >> memory percent 16.7% >> memory percent total 16.7% >> cpu percent 4.1% >> cpu percent total 4.1% >> data collected Thu, 05 Jan 2012 00:05:49 >> >> Process 'emr-enc01-02' >> status Running >> monitoring status Monitored >> pid 1866 >> parent pid 1 >> uptime 8m >> children 0 >> memory kilobytes 1362240 >> memory kilobytes total 1362240 >> memory percent 16.6% >> memory percent total 16.6% >> cpu percent 4.1% >> cpu percent total 4.1% >> data collected Thu, 05 Jan 2012 00:05:49 >> >> Any thoughts on why this might be happening?
