CPU Usage

You can monitor the CPU resource consumption of IEC messages using the CPU Usage tab. Use this function to visually monitor mappings and determine if there are any problems with CPU consumption. If a mapping shows excessive CPU bandwidth use, you can manually terminate the IEC messaging process. If many messages are being processed in IEC, then the CPU Usage tab takes longer to load.

Note: When "N/A" is displayed instead of a valid CPU percentage (0% - 100%), this means that the message has already ended, terminated or its CPU consumption cannot be determined. You must expect changes to the displayed messages list on the current page, as the messages list refreshes every time you click on or jump to a different page.

You can terminate a message in CPU Usage tab by following these steps:

  1. Click the Show link beside the message.
  2. Click Terminate button under the maintenance column.
