7.1.1 Querying CPU Usage

This part describes how to query the realtime CPU usage.

Prerequisite
l

The local maintenance terminal (LMT) is started.

The user logs in to the GGSN9811 as an operator with realtime monitoring authority.

The monitored board is in position and runs at normal level.

Procedure
Step 1 Select Maintenance in Navigation Tree of the LMT.
Step 2 Click Service > Common Monitoring. Then, double-click CPU Usage. The Add Tasks dialog

Step 3 Select Subrack No. and Slot No. in the Add Tasks dialog box. Then, click Add. The CPU
Usage window is displayed. The monitoring results are displayed in real time in List (Refer to
Figure 7-2) and Chart (Refer to Figure 7-3).
NOTE

Only one monitoring window of the CPU usage can be displayed at one time. If you need to monitor the
CPU usages of other boards, add the monitoring task in the CPU Usage window. The system can monitor
up to 10 tasks concerning the CPU usage.

Two tags are available at the upper part of the window. In the Chart tab, the y-axis represents the CPU
usage (%), and the abscissa represents the time. Each scale represents a report period (five seconds).

All the monitoring tasks are displayed in the lower part of the window. The information includes
Display, Color Setting, Line Type, Line Width, Subrack No., Slot No., Usage %, and Task
Status.

Step 4 Click Close. Then, the Add Tasks dialog box disappears.
Step 5 Right-click at the upper part of the CPU Usage window to deselect Auto Scroll. Then, the
browsing window does not scroll. You can scroll to the latest data by selecting Auto Scroll.
