Received 90% high CPU usage alerts from monitoring tool

[jeesshnasree]

Hi all,

i recieved one X monitor tool(name not specified)  for 90% cpu utilisation on application  JVM process but login check with top,uptime,w but didn’t get 90% cpu utilisation. Could you please let me know why these differences between X (name not shared) and top command. Alerts are received from monitoring tool with 90% .

Why it’s happened and didn’t get any information with top command. Finally how to avoid these alerts with proper solution. 

Actually monitoring tool name-X  ( I didn’t configured) and received alerts 90% .

Could you please help me this issue for sort out.

A monitoring alert could have been triggered minutes or hours before you checked the system. Maybe there was a spike for a few minutes and by the time you responded the cpu utilization for the process could have returned to a normal state. It would be difficult to speculate much more than that with the limited information.
