Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Web Hosting : Windows Hosting : I need application which can show resources and CPU usage

[SiSHCO]

Hello,

I strongly need application which can show current resources (sites, databases and other ones) and CPU usage. Somethink is abnormal on my windows server and I want to investigate this issue.

Server information:
Windows 2003 Standard
Plesk 8.0.1 panel

Thanks now for advice.

You can't beat Sysinternals for looking under the hood of a Windows machine.

Good luck!

SiSHCO,

You mean you want something that will show the memory and cpu of individual sites? If you're running your sites in dedicated application pools (and you should be) take a look at the task manager, add the PID column and you should be able to identify which app pool / worker process is consuming the memory and cpu.

I also like to use process monitor from sysinternals for this. The other thing you can do is fire up file monitor (also from sysinternals) and see if you see any odd.
Give us a little more info on what's happening and we can probably help resolve it.

performance monitor.

If you want to get the real picture...

1. TaskManager - CPU usage(we can get which service using more memory)
2. Dedicated Application - You can filter which site is using more resorces
3. Statistics- Check for bandwidth usage, from this you can come to know clear picture
4. TCP/IP monitoring either by netstat or any tool.. From this you can get which IP is connecting to which port... and also the connection status.

So you can conclude the server performance by one of these.. from netstats itself you will come to know which port many connection establish..

Somebody needs to create a Google Desktop plugin with your resource info. Now THAT would be cool!

you can try process explorer from sysinternals now owned by microsoft. it show cpu, memory for each worker process in iis and other processes, tcp/port connections each process is connecting to as well as many other features.

I installed Process Monitor v1.12 to the system. Works perfect at this time. Thank you very much for all your replies.
