    I'm trying to create a monitor for a particular process, we'll call the process, alpha.exe, and I want to generate an alert after it goes over 40% CPU after 5 minutes.

    I'm using windows performance counters, consecutive samples over threshold

    Monitor target is Windows Server
    Parent Monitor is Performance

    I am having trouble with the object/counter/instance

    I know the object is supposed to be alpha.exe, but not sure what the counter and instance are supposed to say and be.

    Thank you.

    Hi,
     
    Start the performance viewer local on the server, and add counters, then you can see the exact name. That is a easy way to find out the name.
