[ISS Support Case] Detecting CPU Utilization Within Application Server
Last updated: October 17th, 2025Description
I am looking for a way to detect and monitor total CPU utilization as in how busy is the systems CPU. Preferably, it would be nice if an object could have an attribute which held the % CPU utilization on the system it is currently running on. This could then be historized. Additionally, we could create an alarm off it as well. If CPU % went above 50% for more than 30 seconds than an alarm would be created as an example. You can look at the attributes of a platform in object viewer. You can see CPULoad and CPULoadAvg listed. After reviewing these, it appears these just show the information of the current CPU core the platform is running on and not the entire CPU utilization. The platforms have an 'Alarms' tab inside the IDE with a "Report Excess CPU load alarm" option. I suspect this only reports on the current CPU core the platform is running on and not the entire CPU. Is this possible to do?

I am seeing an issue with SP2023 R2 P1 related to appengine failovers. When I cause an appengine failover, data (primarily analog) has a gap in the trend until the data changes. Sometimes the gap stays but sometimes the gap is "filled" in for some reason. I'm having a bit of a consistency issue trying to replicate this problem. Every time I cause a failover, the results are slightly different but I do see bad results. To demonstrate this, I created two videos to show what I'm seeing. If someone can create a problem ticket and reach out to me, I can forward the videos to InSource to show what I'm seeing.
