Monitors the utilization of an individual CPU core on a server.
The utilization of a CPU core on a server is high.
The server may be highly utilized.
Check whether the utilization of other CPU cores is high or the average CPU utilization of a server is high for longer periods of time. If yes, this indicates an overloaded server, so consider migrating some of the virtual machines to other servers.
Occasional utilization peaks of individual CPU cores are okay as long as the average CPU utilization on a server is not higher than 80%. The average server’s CPU utilization higher than 80% with a high frequency of CPU core utilization spikes typically indicates an overloaded server.
For more information on how to migrate virtual machines to other servers, see the “Citrix XenServer Administrator’s Guide”.
