RRD System Graph

gerald

Just installed latest pfSense. Don't understand the system process graph. It shows processes at 120. I attached a screenshot of the graph. The cpu usage is normally very low or near zero. The number of processes running is 119. What does that number represent.

It is, literally, the number of processes running on the system.

To see the list of running processes, run this from console:

ps -auxww

Thanks for the reply. That's what I thought but was not sure.
