So first of all - you have SCOM up and running and you have one of the Windows OS management packs installed? You would then be using a built in monitor such as Total CPU utilization %

Out of the box the threshold is 95% so you would need to override as needed to change

The easiest way would then be to right click when you get an alert and choose "Notification Subscription" and "Create". Or this can also all be done via Administration under "Notifications". You will need to define -

Chanel - How it gets there - i.e. for mail configure the SMTP server and format of the message

Subsciber - The person who gets the message (i.e. your e-mail address etc)

Subscription - What you want to be alerted to - in your case the CPU monitor

Hi,

The monitor name is "Total CPU utilization percentage" which come from windows OS Management Pack

You may use override by setting CPU utilization threshold to certain %

You can find it after you have Windows OS Management Pack  imported under Authoring -> Management PAck Objects -> Monitors.

You may refer to the link below to get more details about notification:

OpsMgr 2012:  Configure notifications

To get the report of CPU usage, you may try to run Performace report under Microsoft Generic report library, and find rules by counter:

Hi There,

You can override the default alert as Yan Li has mentioned above or you can override the above as well.

Or you can do the below.

1. Create a Alerting perfmon monitor and add that to the email subscription. So when ever the threshold of the monitor goes high as you want an email will be generated to your mailbox.

2. Create a collection Rule for the same and schedule that as well via email using scheduled reports.

For the reports you can use the Performance detail report go get the extract of the collection rule.

1)configure the alert mail when CPU Utilization is High as above certain %.
  By default, Windows OS Management Pack has "Total CPU utilization Percentage" which can generate alert when CP Utilization is high than 95% and CPU query length is more than 15 for 45 minutes. You can change the % by using override. If you just want to generate alert for high % CPU utilization rather than high % CPU utilization anf CPU query length, you may override CPU query length to 1.For configuration email alert for high CPU % utilization, you may refer to http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2012/04/28/opsmgr-2012-configure-notifications.aspx

2)  generate the report.
Using Performance Detail Report under Reporting Workspace --> Microsoft Generic Report.
Object : using windows to search Windows Server instance of machines which want to display CPU utilization

Performance Rule: Processor % Processor time Total Windows Server XXXX
