Following Process shows high cpu usage.
28020 (Trace) (Kill) root 0 126 0.0 /bin/ps -ewwo pid,uid,user,nice,pmem,pcpu,command
How to get rid of it ?.
Comments
Push the "kill" button to kill it.
kill -9 28020
An error occurred processing your request:
kill 28603: No such process
Huh...?
if you know the process name, which should be easy to find from htop or top as you said it's consuming a fair bit of CPU, then use killall,
eg,
killall process_name_here
I can't kill the process its showing up at every 12.00 AM for about 40 to 50 mts.
Chances are, it's cron job. Look in your crontab.
Anyone know what process is it ?.
Checkout your crontab like @black said, might just find something there
I checked but i can't find anything unusual.
`-bash: kill: (28020) - No such process
root@cloud [~]# for user in $(cut -f1 -d: /etc/passwd); do crontab -u $user -l; done

If it shows up once everyday at 12:00AM, the only cronjob that matches your criteria is
I'd recommend you figure out what that does before you remove it though.

Its a normal cpanel process. I hadn't met any problem with that.
Check the cron stuff in
/etc/. If it's happening at 12:00am daily, see if it's from anything in/etc/cron.daily/The process you have given just lists the processes running in the server. It can be a cron as mentioned earlier just taking some stats.
However, its also possible, that when you are clicking the "Process Manager" it itself executes that command to list the current running processes in the server. If there are a really a lot of processes running in the server, then it can take some CPU but it won't be very high.
