HOST

The IP number of the host(s). When selecting the link the Pico Viewer is opened. Refer to 1.2.7 Pico Viewer Tab for further information.

CPU SYSTEM TIME (%)

The percentage of time spent in kernel specific code, such as scheduling of different processes or network transfer. 100% means that all processing power is spent.

DETAILS

A link to the Host Details page showing a table with values for the selected host. See Host Details below for more information.

CPU USER TIME (%)

The percentage of CPU time spent in non-kernel specific code. 100% means that all processing power is spent.

CPU SYSTEM TIME (%)

The percentage of time spent in kernel specific code, such as scheduling of different processes or network transfer. 100% means that all processing power is spent.

CONTEXT SWITCHES (/S)

The number of context switches per second. A context switch occurs when one process hands over information to another process. The more context switches, the less effective and scalable the system will be.

SWAPPED TO DISK (BLOCKS/S)

The amount of data that was swapped out. A large value indicates that the system does not have enough RAM to manage the memory requirements of the different processes.

SWAPPED IN FROM DISK (BLOCKS/S)

The amount of data that was swapped in from disk. A large value indicates that the system does not have enough RAM to manage the memory requirements of the different processes.

PROCESSES WAITING FOR RUN (#)

Shows how many processes that are waiting to be executed. A high number indicates that the machine is not fast enough to manage the load.

PROCESSES SWAPPED OUT (#)

Number of processes that has been persisted in swap due to shortage of available memory or due to aggressive management of the memory layer.

PROCESSES IN SLEEP (#)

Number of processes that are presently not doing anything.
