Hi
Â
We have tried that.
Â
We have our Apps/Dbs all stopping and starting on a night to sort other errors, and generally the PID that is locked on CPU is not visible in the logs and the PID that started it in the logs has been closed by stopping and starting the apps and db and the PID that is running in task manager is not available in Progress Explorer Tools PIDS.
Â
Any other info would be appreciated.

You can find out what those processes are doing when they peg at 13%, that
usually means they are using a full core from a total of 8 processor cores?
First you should check your System Monitor to see what is going on, if it's
a report or specifically run process, it will be noted there. The next step
is to make sure your main appserver logs are set to verbose, and then you
can actually look up the PID and get an answer as to what that PID is
actually doing based on the last actions called by it.

Hi
Â
We have no scheduling other than global alerts.
Â
It has been an issue since we went live with epicor.
Â
Peicor have looked into all kinds of things including licenceing etc.
Â
Nothing has done the trick.
Â
Sometimes we get PIDs for Apps that stick at 13% CPU.
Â
All logs are fine.

If you're having issues with people being unable to login or apps hanging, I
would suggest that there may be more than just performance issues here.
I would try to figure out what is preventing the logins first. If you've got
custom code building sessions or an incorrectly scheduled process that is
tying up your app servers that could cause this type of scenario.
Obviously you know your system/situation better than I do, but I'd be pretty
hesitant to attribute stability issues to performance.
