The Process Details page focuses on a single process, showing how it consumes CPU, IOPS, and memory over time and which hosts account for most of its resource usage and cost. Use this page to investigate a specific process after identifying it on the Overview.
Selecting a Process
To open Process Details, click any row in the Processes table on the Overview page, or select the action icon (three vertical dots) at the right end of a row and choose View Details.
You can also navigate directly to the Details tab. If no process has been selected, the page displays a prompt to select a process. Click Select a Process to return to the Overview, or use the Filters control on the Details page to filter by Process Name. Applying a single-process filter loads the Details view without returning to the Overview.
Context Strip
A context strip below the toolbar identifies the process currently in view. It displays the Process Name, Process Category, Program Name, and the number of hosts where the process was detected during the selected date range. These fields are informational and reflect the current date range selection.
Summary Cards
Four summary cards provide aggregated metrics for the selected process across all hosts where it runs during the selected date range.
| Card | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Annual Process Spend | Estimated annual cost attributed to this process based on aggregated resource consumption. The unit cost is based on the Wait Cost per Hour as defined in Admin Console > Cost Management > Wait Time. |
| CPU | Average and peak CPU utilization across all hosts. The bar indicates average utilization relative to capacity. |
| IOPS | Average and peak IOPS across all hosts. The bar indicates average IOPS relative to peak. |
| Memory | Average and maximum memory usage across all hosts. The bar indicates average usage relative to peak. |
Resource Usage Chart
The Resource Usage chart displays time-series data for the selected process over the active date range. Use the CPU, IOPS, and Memory tabs above the chart to toggle between metrics. All three metrics share the same chart; switching tabs updates the data displayed.
Chart Controls
The Chart Time Widget above the chart provides interval navigation. Use the interval selector to set a preset time window (1h, 6h, 12h, 1d, 3d, 7d, 14d, 30d), and the back and forward arrows to move the displayed range backward or forward by one interval. The return arrow resets the chart to the default 7-day range. For full details, see Chart Time Widget.
The percentile selector controls which statistical measure is plotted. The default is the 90th Percentile. Available options are:
- Average
- Min
- Max
- 90th Percentile
- 97th Percentile
Hosts Running Table
The Hosts Running table lists every host where the selected process was detected during the active date range, with per-host resource metrics and cost.
Sort Buttons
Three buttons above the table control how rows are ranked and update the percentage message displayed below the buttons.
- Top Spend — Sorts by Annual Spend descending and displays the percentage of total spend for this process accounted for by the visible rows.
- Top CPU — Sorts by CPU Avg descending and displays the percentage of total CPU for this process accounted for by the visible rows.
- Top IOPS — Sorts by IOPS Avg descending and displays the percentage of total IOPS for this process accounted for by the visible rows.
Clicking a column header directly also sorts the table. The percentage message updates to reflect the visible rows when sorted by a non-button column.
Row Display Count
The table displays 15 rows by default. Use the selector at the bottom of the table to change the count. Available options are 5, 10, 15, 25, 50, and 100. The percentage message updates to reflect all rows at the current count.
Columns
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Host | Name of the host where this process was detected. |
| CPU Usage | Visual utilization bar showing average and maximum CPU usage for this process on this host during the selected date range. |
| CPU Avg | Average CPU utilization for this process on this host. |
| CPU Max | Peak CPU utilization recorded for this process on this host. |
| Memory Usage | Visual utilization bar showing average and maximum memory usage for this process on this host. |
| Memory Avg | Average memory usage for this process on this host. |
| Memory Max | Peak memory usage recorded for this process on this host. |
| IOPS Usage | Visual utilization bar showing average and maximum IOPS for this process on this host. |
| IOPS Avg | Average IOPS for this process on this host. |
| IOPS Max | Peak IOPS recorded for this process on this host. |
| Annual Spend | Estimated annual infrastructure cost attributed to this process on this host. |
Use the column selector in the column header row to show or hide individual columns and customize your view.
Actions
Select the action icon (three vertical dots) at the right end of any host row to access the following options:
- Export — Downloads the current table data.
- Full Screen — Expands the table to fill the browser window.
Process Detail Flyout
Clicking any row in the Hosts Running table or selecting the action icon and choosing View Details opens the Process Detail flyout for that host. The flyout displays classification and reference information for the selected process on that specific host.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Process Name | The process executable name. |
| Process Category | The functional category assigned by WISdom (for example, Security - Antivirus / EDR). |
| Process Program | The parent program or application associated with the process. |
| Process Manufacturer | The manufacturer or vendor of the process. |
| Host | The specific host this record is associated with. |
| Process Library | A link to the ProcessLibrary public database entry for this process. Opens in a new tab. |
Process Library links are generated automatically for all recognized processes using the process name as the search parameter.
Filtering and Navigation
Use the Filters control to narrow the Hosts Running table by one or more of the following fields:
- Host
- Process Name
Use Tag to filter by tags assigned to hosts. Use Views to save and load column configurations. Select Reset to clear all active filters.
The Date Picker controls the date range applied to all metrics on this page, including the chart and the Hosts Running table. Adjusting the date range updates the context strip host count and all metric values.
