CPU/MEM Process Snapshot

If you use the agent you should run this in local host execution mode, if you do not then you would run it in remote host.

Collects the CPU loads for 1 minute then averages the loads and reports the top processes by CPU and memory utilization.

I combine this SAM template with this custom query resource,Top Processes by CPU/MEM widget for Node Details , on my Node Details views so I can look back in time and quickly see what my top 5 processes were at any point in the past.

Edit: with recent changes to the SAM DB schema we no longer store historical message data, so you can't see which processes were consuming resources in the past.  It kind of kills a major value prop of this template but I'll leave it up in case people need a top xx current process check.
