What does this message mean? "Processor Time Failed (19002):"

[Jack Ryan]

SIM has been generating this message all weekend, the server seems to be just fine, I just can't figure out what is going on. This is a Dl380 G1, 2 GB RAM, Win2k SP4, serves as the Domain Controller, and also runs the Exchange connector, no errors in the event logs... any help appreciated.

You've got CPU Thresholds set, or maybe PMP licensed for this Server.
The Server will be reporting a CPU performance issue, there would be additional info providing the CPU and the percentage reported.

If you're seeing a number then you've probably got some kind of workload that hits peaks and drops off again and repeats, generating another message at each peak.

If you have PMP, you could turn on Logging and record the data, otherwise you could set up the Windows Monitoring to record and then playback to see what was happening at the time. Or stay at work all weekend and watch the Server 8-)
