We've been using the following metric to measure server performance accross a 6 node load balanced tier running a web application. The metric reaches 100% just before an application crash so I'm confident it is telling us something useful. Can you please give me a technical explanation of what the following metric is showing us;</P> <P style="margin: 0in; margin-left: .375in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;">&nbsp;</P> <P style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;">Application Infrastructure Performance &gt; <SPAN style="font-style: italic;">Tier</SPAN> &gt; Individual Nodes &gt; <SPAN style="font-style: italic;">Node</SPAN> &gt; Hardware Resources &gt; CPU%</P> Tue, 17 Oct 2017 08:02:27 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/Hardware-Resources/m-p/728875#M6418 CommunityUser 2017-10-17T08:02:27Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/Hardware-Resources/m-p/728876#M6419 <P>I believe the .NET agent collects the Windows performance counter "<STRONG class="">System: %Total Processor Time</STRONG>" and reports it to the Controller as&nbsp;Application Infrastructure Performance|&lt;Tier&gt;|Individual Nodes|&lt;Node&gt;|Hardware Resources|CPU|%Busy</P> <P>See&nbsp;<A href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/performance-monitor/monitor-cpu-usage" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/performance-monitor/monitor-cpu-usage</A> for details.</P> Tue, 17 Oct 2017 14:17:54 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-AppDynamics/Hardware-Resources/m-p/728876#M6419 Brian_Wheeldon 2017-10-17T14:17:54Z
