Hi, System center management service (scom health service) consuming more than 90% CPU utilization continuously on RMS (SCOM 2007 R2). Kindly suggest whats the issue & resolution. ThanksSyed

1. You don't have any RMS related alerts in the console? 2. You already tried to restart the service or the entire server? 3. You traced back if this isn't related to the import of a new management pack? (bad discoveries etc.) 4. You check the Operations Manager event log?

1.No alerts related to RMS. 2.Already been done. 3.No MP is imported for 6 month. 4.Yes and but no alerts found related to this.Syed

Which version you have installed of SCOM? Latest CU or hotfixes applied? (Informational) You don't have a new product installed on the RMS like an antivirus that could be causing issues? This could be a solution for such type of behavior: Set your antivirus software to exclude real-time scanning from the <SCOM INSTALL>\Health Service State\Health Service Store folder. Delete all files out of the same <SCOM INSTALL>\Health Service State\Health Service Store folder. Restart the HealthService again and let it rebuild everything.

But is there a problem? If everything is healthy,then congrats, you spent the right amount when you sized your CPU on that server for the workload you chose! If everything is working, your consoles are able to function, the agents are fine, and you aren't seeing errors in the Operations Manager event log on the RMS, then you are just seeing that it is fully utilizing the hardware you have put it on.Microsoft Corporation

Is it running on Hardware or a Virtual Machine? Cheers, John Bradshaw

Microsoft Corporation A continous 90% CPU usage is not a good sizing for any system, but I get the idea from his question that this behavior is new and unexplainable by normal load scenario's. No new MP imported in 6 months, no real change in the amount of agents deployed either? No other stuff added to monitor that could explain the load? (f.e. stacks of network devices and port monitoring is enabled)

That's your interpretation of his writing :) Dan could be right, so just wait if he can offer more information other than he did sofar.Regards, Marc Klaver http://jama00.wordpress.com/

Hi every body, My RMS is running on Virtual Machine and configuration are: Processor: Intel(R)Xeon(R) CPU X5650 @ 2.67GHz 2.66GHz Memory: 8GB and every thing is healthy except Healthservice CPU utilization.For Antivirus exclusion we are following below link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/975931 so there is no issue from the side of Antivirus.
