User Guide and Manual for Project Canary

This report is identical to the “By Campus” Sun Ray Load Profile report in data delivery, however, unlike the
“By Campus” report, this report lists all servers being monitored by Project Canary software.
Note that the example on the previous page shows a “Kill Candidate” process that, if terminated, would free up
.11 CPUs for other tasks.
The Details table in the Sun Ray Load Profile By Hour report is identical to the report in the Sun Ray Load
Profile By Campus report described earlier, again, with the exception that it lists all servers being monitored by
Project Canary software. An example of the Details table in the Sun Ray Load Profile By Hour report is shown
below:
This table excerpt shows only the “top” CPU consuming processes and is quite long. Note that the processes
taking up the majority of CPU time are browsers, esd, the SunMC monitoring daemon, Java, GNOME
applications, office productivity software, and other user productivity software.
Column “A” shows the name of the process. Column “B” shows the number of those processes running across
all server being monitored by Project Canary software. Column “C” shows the number of active processes; this
number is derived from the number of processes actually using CPU time. Processes in a sleep state are not
counted as part of this number. Column “D” adds together the amount of CPU utilized by each process on
each server. The percentage of CPU used shown in this column is a total from all CPUs being monitored. The
last column shows the average CPU utilization per CPU that each instance of that process.
