![]() Current percent of CPU consumption by the process, or how much of the system’s processing power is being devoted to this specific process. A thread is a single processing instance. The process might be running, as most are, or might be listed as terminated if it’s not running anymore. A short description that details the purpose of the process. This is useful if you want to use other utilities to manage processes, or if you want to easily match up processes with Task Manager. The ID number associated with the process. This is the name of the process that is consuming CPU resources. You are shown the name of the executable and a number of performance statistics. This section of the window is a list of all of the running processes that are using CPU resources. I won’t repeat metrics if one type of metric appears in multiple areas, I list it once. ![]() In the sections below, I provide details for each metric. ![]() ![]() The statistics area occupies most of the window. Let’s start with an overall look at the console. This screenshot was taken during a particularly light period of usage.įigure A Resource Monitor CPU view in Windows Server 2008 R2 (Click the image to enlarge.) The virtual machine has four vCPUs assigned to it. Like all of our other servers, this server is running as a virtual machine under VMware vSphere 4.1. The figure shows a Resource Monitor view from a production server running Windows Server 2008 R2 and Exchange Server 2010 with all Exchange roles installed. In this column, I discuss the various disk-related metrics that you can view with Resource Monitor, explain the graphs you see, and provide some context around each metric.įor the purposes of this post, we’ll use the screenshot below in Figure A. In part one of my four-part series on the Windows Resource Monitor tool, I explained how you can use Resource Monitor to glean intelligence about the operating condition of mission-critical Windows servers. ![]() Find out you can use the tool to troubleshoot CPU performance issues. Scott Lowe provides an overview of disk-related metrics in the Windows Resource Monitor. Use Resource Monitor to monitor CPU performance ![]()
