•View all processes running on the current system

•Terminate processes on the current system

•Save a list of processes to a file

To open the Processes screen, from the Dashboard menu, select Support Tools > <mode> > Processes.

Note: This utility is available to privileged users only. It will not appear on the Dashboard menu for non-privileged users.

To View Processes

To view processes for the current system:

Step 1 Click the View Processes button. The screen displays all processes currently running on the system.

For each process, the screen displays:

•Name: The name of the process.

•PID: The process's ID number.

•Type: Either Critical (blue), Known, (green), or unknown (red). This categorization for each process is based on modifiable process definitions stored in the Processes Definition List.

•Information: Additional information about the process as defined in the Processes Definition List.

Note: Support Tools automatically downloads the list of current processes at the time you connect to a system. If you suspect the system's processes have changed since you first connected to it, click the Refresh button to refresh the list.
