CPU limitation

[PedroN]

Hello,

I have a dedicated server, with some clients, and some of my clients almost use all server resources for their websites, I will want to know if there is any method, to limit the cpu for their accounts or subscription, so that the can not use the 100% of the server cpu or the 100% memory server, like for example some companies have with cpanel.

Thanks,
Pedro

You need to use dedicated pool. Details you can find here - http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PP11/11.5/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-administrator-guide/60323.htm
The Maximum CPU use (%) option limits the amount of the server CPU that the pool can use.

Ok, but if I activate the maximum cpu usage for dedicated pools, what would happen if a website has a cpu limit and it needs more cpu? The subscription will be suspend for a period of time? it will simply use the maximum cpu specified so the website will be slower? or what will happen?

Thanks

it will simply use the maximum cpu specified so the website will be slower?

That's right.

And is there any method to see how many cpu % has a pool consumed in a period of time?
For example, I have a dedicated pool for a website and I want to know how much cpu it uses in 1 day.

Plesk has only one monitoring tool - Health Monitor. Check this possibility there.

there is no such tool, you will need to monitor it using task manager or process explorer.
