Unless you specifically care about single cores maxing out, you probably only want to alert on “Average” (Which is the usage number task manager / top / etc will show you anyway). A 36 core/thread CPU with 1 core at 100% is only 3% used.

CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL: DO NOT open attachments or click links from unknown or unexpected emails.
Hey List,
after fixing the problem with dont check mountpoints, here´s the next one ... we´ve a Server with 2 CPU; I defined an Alert Checker
Entity DeviceHostname Match "*" and Condition "processor_usage gt 95" ...
Now, when I look into my Alert Checkers, I see my Server with Processor "Average" and 2 times "Intel Xeon Processorname ... "
that confuses me a little ... and now the actual Problem:
When Observium send an Alert-Mail, I get 3 Mails ... 1 for "Average" and one for each Processor ... but actually it is enough if I only get one Email ... can I configure this somewhere ?
I helped myself by extend the Entity with "Processor_Description notmatch *average" ... but I don´t know if this is the right way ...
Can somebody help here?
Thanks in advance. Regards, Michael
