Monitor CPU Usage
Monitor CPU Usage and Improve Server Performance
Monitoring CPU usage is important in order to stay on top of your network's performance. If you continuosly monitor CPU usage on all your servers, you will be able to spot server overloads before they lead to poor network performance or even downtimes. This way, a Windows CPU monitor such as PRTG Network Monitor helps you to guarantee that your network servers are always available, allows you to distribute loads evenly, and shows you when you should buy additional resources.
How to monitor CPU usage on Windows?
PRTG supports SNMP and WMI, which can be used to monitor memory and CPU load on Windows machines. Just run PRTG's auto-discovery on your network, and CPU sensors will be created automatically for all your servers.
How to monitor CPU usage on Linux / Unix?
Monitoring CPU usage and memory monitoring on Linux / Unix computers is possible using SNMP, SSH, or WBEM.
