Name

Cpu -- Check CPU utilization and uptime

Synopsis

{ 'type'    : 'Cpu' ,
  'status'  : 'on' ,
  'triggers':  [{ 'level' : 'info', 'trigger' : '10'}],
}

Description

The Cpu Entity records the system load average (or other CPU measure) and the system uptime.

Trigger

The Trigger checks the 5 minute load average, multiplied by 10. For example, a trigger of 10 looks for a load average of 1.0. The Server also checks that the system uptime is greater than 300 seconds. If the uptime is less than 300, then the machine has rebooted and the Server sends a special notification. (This is the only special-cased Entity in the Server.)
