hpux_cpu

License: GPL

Distribution: official part of Check_MK

Supported Agents: HPUX

This check measures and checks the averaged CPU load. The values for 1, 5 and 15 minute average are sent, although the PNP template shipped with check_mk only displays the 1 and 15 min average load.

This check is compatible with the check cpu.loads of the linux agent.

Check parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
warning	int	15 minute average load per processor at which a warning is triggered. If you set this value to 2 on a 16 CPU machine, then a warning will be reached at a load of 32.
critical	int	15 minute average load per processor at which a critical state is triggered.

Performance data

Three values: The load average for 1, 5 and 15 minutes.

Inventory

One service is created if the agent outputs valid data.

Configuration variables

Variable	Type	Description
cpuload_default_levels	int, int	A pair of floats or integers: The default levels. These levels are used for inventorized checks. This variable is preset to (5, 10)

Examples

# Set default levels to a load of 4 and 8 per CPU
cpuload_default_levels = (4.0, 8.0).

checks = [
   # Use levels 4 per CPU (warning) and 8 per CPU (critical)
   # on all hosts with the tag "linux"
   (["hp"], ALL_HOSTS, "hpux_cpu", None, (4, 8)),
