System information
Figure 110. QuickSlice Process Monitor QSLICE.EXE
The QuickSlice window shows two bars per process:
•
Red bar = kernel time
•
Blue bar = user time
By double-clicking on the image name, a second window is shown with the
threads and their CPU usage. Figure 110 has the thread window in the middle of
it.
For the main window, the length of the bar represents:
(CPU usage for a single process) / (CPU usage for all processes currently running in the system) * 100
For the secondary windows, the length of the bar represents (CPU usage for an
individual thread) / (CPU usage for all the threads in this process) * 100.
2.3.4 Command Scheduler
For command scheduling, Windows NT provides the AT command. With Windows
NT comes the old AT command line command, known from MS LAN Manager or
IBM LAN Server. It still has the same function: start a Command at a certain
time and date. There are some enhancements within the Windows NT command:
•
The parameter \\COMPUTERNAME was added to set and change AT
schedules on remote computers through the network.
•
The parameter /INTERACTIVE was added. This allows the job to interact with
the desktop of the user who is logged on at the time the job runs.
