Collecting processor data with the task monitor (CLI)

The task monitor feature allows you to enable or disable the collection of processor utilization data. The task-monitor cpu command is equivalent to the existing debug mode command taskusage -d.

When the task-monitor command is enabled, the show cpu command summarizes the processor usage by protocol and system functions.

Syntax:

no task-monitor cpu

Allows the collection of processor utilization data.

Only manager logins can execute this command.

The settings are not persistent, that is, there are no changes to the configuration.

(Default: Disabled)

switch(config)# task-monitor cpu
switch(config)# show cpu
