I know before i asked about how to get CPU% to be graphed instead of load, however, now i am wondering if it is possible to have the red/yellow alerts change based on % and also i was wondering if e-mail alerts would then be able to be sent using that.
It's not possible currently, but I plan on adding this in the next
version. The Unix "load average" isn't really meaningful as a
measurement of how busy the system is - it makes much more sense
I think to use the % non-idle from the vmstat data.
