Hi I have the following Problem:
We have some Processes which are running but are idle for some time (maybe some weeks) and the get used by a user. While a single Process is used is should have a cpu usage varying between 10 and 50%. We have the problem that sometimes a process gets stuck and then is running at 100% cpu usage. => this is what we want to check via Nagios. I tried to use check_procs like: ./check_procs -w 80 -c 90 --metric=CPU --command=qemu-system-x86 but this did noch catch the processes. After some testing and searching on the internet I found out that this is depending on how ps calculates the cpu usage: It devides the cputime by the runtime of the process, giving the average cup usage over the whole process time -> which does not really help :-( Does anyone know of an alternative check which gives me the cpu usage actual of a process (or maybe the average over the last minute)?
