The Process Manager is a server administration tool that lets you monitor and manage all the processes on your Corel LINUX computer.
The performance of your Corel LINUX computer and server depends on how the computer's resources, the CPU and memory for example, manage the processing of instructions from the running applications. These instructions are called processes.
When one process begins to heavily rely on the computer's processing power, other processes on the computer might be denied access to processing resources. This can lead to poor computer or server performance. Using the Process Manager, you can monitor what processes are using your computer's resources and send signals to processes that need to be interrupted or terminated. The Process Manager also lets you change the priority of processes, so that important processes are not denied processing resources.
The Process Manager displays all the processes on your Corel LINUX computer. For each process, the Process Manager can display various statistics including, the percentage of CPU used by a process, the owner of the process, and the priority level of the process. You can use the Process Manager to display only certain types of processes, such as non-root processes, and different sets of process statistics.
The Process Manager lets you send signals, such as the kill signal, to processes that you own. Typically, you send a signal to a process that you want to stop or remove from the processing queue.
Using the Process Manager you can modify the priority of processes so that Corel LINUX allocates more resources to high priority processes. By managing priority levels of your computer's processes, you can manage your server's performance.
