It's Windows Server 2012R2 and it happens several times a day, every day.
I could take a look at the CPU load, though. Thanks for the idea.

What OS version are they? Does it happen more often after Patch Tuesday?
We have some 2008 to 2012 servers that the CPU goes so high as the OS runs
it's update scans to see what patches it needs. Happens every few hours
(set in WSUS frequency), and so severe that XymonClient can't run and send
its files to Xymon server.

Subject: Frequent purple alerts
I have a number of systems running the PowerShell Xymon client. One and
only one of them frequently gives purple alerts on all tests. I haven't
found any pattern for this yet. They just seem to happen several times per
day and then clear themselves after anything from a few minutes to a few
hours. I tried removing and reinstalling the client, but that didn't seem
to help.
Any suggestions?
