Processes
Purpose
Processes — a live process monitor for the host: every OS process with its CPU and memory usage, refreshed every 3 seconds, with a per-process detail drill-down.
This is the host process table (not per-guest). For guest activity use VM Console or Live Metrics / Analytics.
When to use it
- Finding what's consuming CPU or memory on the host right now
- Spotting zombie or stopped processes, or an unexpectedly high process count
- Digging into a specific process's command line, I/O, open file descriptors, or context-switch activity
- When System Health shows pressure and you need the offending PID
- Alongside Debug Tools when you want a structured table instead of raw
toptext
How to get there
- Console URL pattern:
http://127.0.0.1:<port>/…orhttps://<host>/… - Route / id:
/processes - Nav: Monitoring → Processes (sidebar, command palette, or desktop nav)
Operate from the console (UX)
- Summary cards: Total Processes, Running, Sleeping.
- Filter box matches PID, process name, or state as you type.
- Table: PID, name, CPU % (color bar — green <20%, blue <50%, amber <80%, red 80%+), memory MB, state badge (Running / Sleeping / Disk Wait / Zombie / Stopped), thread count.
- Click a row for Process Detail — command line, IO read/write bytes, open FDs, voluntary/involuntary context switches. Close collapses it.
- Auto-refresh every 3 seconds; manual refresh in the header.
Typical flow: sort attention to red CPU bars → open detail → note command line → correlate with FluxVM/QEMU or container workloads on Containers. Read-only — no kill/signal from this page.
Empty / fail: Error banner, empty table, or failed toast — confirm you are signed in, zyvor-fabricd is healthy (/readyz on http://127.0.0.1:<port> or https://<host>), and any backend this page needs (FluxVM, storage, network) is reachable. See Admin basics.
Success: Live data loads without error; creates/updates appear in the list or detail view and any confirmation toast clears cleanly.
