CPU Utilization (Remote)

CPU Utilization (Remote) reports present each processor load and idle time for one or more host devices. These reports help you to visualize the demand for processing resources, identify peak periods, and help troubleshoot and denote 'root cause' for incidents involving CPU exhaustion.

(Report Options). Jump to a detailed dashboard or control panel for:
- Device Status.
Device. Device name.
CPU. CPU type (CPU index in parenthesis)
CPU Load. Average CPU load percentage for the selected period.

Note: This report returns CPU Utilization (Remote) metrics for devices that already have the appropriate performance monitoring enabled. To enable these polled measurements, see CPU Utilization Monitor.

Generate a report

Choose WhatsUp Gold Environment. Choose the remote WhatsUp Gold environment monitoring CPU usage.

Choose Device. Choose one or more host devices you want CPU Utilization (Remote) measurements for.

Sort and pick columns. Sort and pick columns.

Chart, adjust output, and visualize. Fine tune report presentation and range of values displayed using the Report Setting dialog (optional).

Export report data

Report data can be exported from WhatsUp Gold, reused, and distributed in multiple formats. Select Expand () from the Dashboard Options () menu. After the report has been expanded, select the Export Data icon to access the following options:

HTML. Generate and download a .htm file presenting your report data as it appears in the WhatsUp Gold user interface.
Excel. Generate and download a .xml spreadsheet containing your report data.
CSV. Generate and download a .csv file containing your report data.
Text. Generate and download a .txt file containing your report data.
Schedule Export. Set a recurring date and time, format, and email destination for report data export.
Important: Current report data file format options are only applicable to export schedules created using WhatsUp Gold version 2021 and later. Any report data export schedule created using an earlier version of WhatsUp Gold will still result in a .PDF output until that schedule is removed from, then recreated in the Scheduled Reports Library using the latest version of WhatsUp Gold.
