Hello list,

I've installed monit on one of our production servers and it works great!

I have a job there the takes backup of the server logs at 5:34 each day, and
each day I get an alert from monit telling me "Description: 'server' cpu
wait usage of 42.6% matches resource limit [cpu wait usage>20.0%]".

Now, I could just go raise the bar in monit config file to be 50% but I
would like to understand what these cpu measurements really mean ?

Could someone please enlighten me, refer to me to proper source of
information or just give a good explanation of when the wait time of the cpu
becomes high and when is it system time? I assume the user time is simple
user space, for example a program is doing sorting on 1million records which
takes time.

Thank you,
Maxim.
