    We have an active Geneos monitoring set for CPU utilization and memory utilization so, most of the times, whenever the graphs run takes place, we have been alerted and run out of memory and CPU is being utilized to the core say 99%. At times, even utilization of CPU touches 100%.

    Is there a way to restrict this in not to happen and limit the usage of resources?

    We have been facing this issue since we had 4.6.1 and now recently, we have been migrated to version 6.1 (Lavastorm).


    Drones is one thing which comes to my mind, but if it's not properly configured it will lead to catastrophe again.


    Please advise.

    Thanks,

    Vijay

    Hi,

    as you mentioned thread pooling is one of the ways to go, but this may not necessarily be the best option for you. Other alternative I would say is on the unix/linux level. You can use "nice" command or "cpulimit" command to set lower priority or to maximize CPU that shall be consumed by specific process...

    see this link http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/20...it-and-cgroups

    additionaly for memory you can use ulimit command.
