Nexus 7000 CPU information

[mmacdonald70]

We are setting up more detailed monitoring of our datacenter switches.  One of the issues that came up is that while the SUP cpu usage is low, all of our linecards are showing 25-30% cpu.  What is considered high cpu for linecards?  Is there any way of figuring out what is consuming this cpu?

The CPU usage on the line card is dependent on what is running on the switch so difficult to have a universal baseline on what should be expected.

Can you share the following-

Att mod x

Show processes cpu history

show processes cpu sort

I am not indicating that you have a problem to address but would be good to see what all processes are running on the line card.
