RE: [SA-list] spike cpu/tools

I don't think that you can change the CPU usage of a running processes.  You can change the priority of a process and as such leave more "room" to other processes, but I'm not sure if this can be done for an already running processes.    Dirk.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ListServ Sent: Monday, November 08, 2004 10:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [SA-list] spike cpu/tools Can a person take a process such as inetinfo.exe and set the cpu process of that application to 60%. What I am looking for maybe something from Windows resource kit or some third party app.   Thanks for the reply.   RS   Machine in question: Windows 2000 server running Exchange 5.5. On occasion the inetinfo.exe pegs the cpu to 100% preventing our BackUp Exec server to start the backup job on the Exchange 5.5 machine. There are no resources available for the remote agent to start. Often all I have to do is kill the inetinfo process which then respawns itself taking the cpu back to a normal setting.   For the kill job I use pstools from SysInternals.com.

What is "spike"?  And what should the tool "spike" about Servers ALive?   Dirk.     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ListServ Sent: Monday, November 08, 2004 9:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SA-list] spike cpu/tools Does anyone know of a tool that can spike a process to check to make sure a person has SA setup properly?   ########################## Roger Schmeits Sr. Network Engineer Clarkson College http://www.clarksoncollege.edu (402) 552-2542 ########################## Disclaimer: The information contained in this e-mail is privileged and confidential and is intended only for the use of the addressee(s) indicated above.
