Managing processes


The Process Management node displays information about programs and processes running on the remote managed devices, thus providing you with the possibility to monitor key indicators of your computer's performance. You can quickly see the status of the programs that are running and end programs that have stopped responding. You can also assess the activity of running processes using as many as 15 parameters, and see data on CPU and memory usage.

The Process Management node provides the following information about the currently running local processes:
