Hi,

Im trying to get the cpu load of the server machine using UiPath.
How is it possible to achieve this using powershell script & what are the prerequisites like admin rights needed etc to achieve the same.

Hi @RPA24

Check this manually first,

A Windows PowerShell window displays processor load percentage queries, showing results of 20% and 24%. (Captioned by AI)

Try below workflow,

Note: No admin rights needed, but might be some organizational rules applied

I use the following PS scripts to monitor whether remote server security log space reaches its warning size. You can modify -ArgumentList to get CPU info.
Furthermore, I have tried to calculate the average cpu load in a certain duration with PowerShell code. And I did it on local machine, but failed on remote. May be it can be solve by storing the data into database, and then calculate the average.

"$Username = 'Administrator'"+vbcr+
"$Password = 'XXXXXXX'"+vbcr+
"$pass = ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText $Password -Force"+vbcr+
"$Cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $Username,$pass"+vbcr+
"Invoke-Command 192.168.1.1 -ScriptBlock { "+vbcr+
"$tempFile = [System.IO.Path]::GetTempFileName()"+vbcr+
"Start-Process PowerShell -ArgumentList ""Get-WinEvent -ListLog Security | ConvertTo-Json | Out-File $tempFile"" -Verb RunAs -Wait"+vbcr+
"if (Test-Path $tempFile) {"+vbcr+
"Get-Content $tempFile"+vbcr+
"Remove-Item $tempFile"+vbcr+
"} else { Write-Host ""cannot find the temp file, it may be failed""}"+vbcr+
"} -credential $Cred"
