How to monitor total CPU for multiple instances of the same Windows Process

tdavison2

Hello,

We have recently configured the Windows Process Monitor to monitor the CPU Usage of a particular Process.  However, we have discovered that this Process can spin up a dozen instances with the same Command Line with each active user session that is occurring.  I can't tell if the Windows Process Monitor is only looking at one instance of the process, or if it's showing the total CPU Usage for all instances of the same Process.  

If it isn't showing a total CPU for all instances, how can I monitor all instances and show a total CPU Usage?

Thank you for any help on this one, I really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Tom

Not that I've dug into it in great detail, but I do have a similar monitor in place and what it SEEMS to be is that on the PID level it keeps the metrics separate, visible on the application details page, but if I map it on a Perfstack chart, it appears to aggregate it to a total CPU of all processes.
