numerous "Performance Status Change" messages

[Paul Adams_6]

The message:"The overall processor utilization is within recommended limits, but the utilization of at least one processor is much higher than recommended (more than 90%), and probably causing performance degradation." The question: can SIM tell me what process is causing this? If so , how? Do I need to configure it. Or, do I need to use Windows Perfmon? I am new to SIM and don't know all of its abilities yet. Thanks for any and all help!

You may want to update the Management Agents to 7.41 as previous versions had a fault where they misreported CPU and IO Busy thresholds.

The thresholds are basic, if you need to analyse further you'll need to dig down using something like Perfmon. HPSIM is just a monitoring / reporting platform, it will just report there is a possible issue.

As a note, it pays to include Agent and HPSIM versions as well as OS just to allow folks to guess better!
