Process Handle Leak

This indication is sent when a process leaks handles.

The indication has the following attributes:

CurrentHanProcessID: The process being monitored (Key attribute)
CurrentHandleCount: The current number of handles allocated to the process
Process: The process being monitored (Key attribute)

The top n processes (where n is the value of the Maximum Processes threshold) that have a number of handles in excess of the Maximum Handles threshold, are compared with the top n processes from the previous cycle. Process IDs are matched and for each process present in both cycles the number of handles in use is compared. If the handle count has increased since the last cycle for a process, an indication is sent. The following thresholds are used:

Threshold	Description	Default
Maximum Processes (MaxProcesses)	This threshold indicates the maximum number of processes that will be compared. These processes will be ordered from the process with the highest handle count to the lowest.	5
Maximum Handles (MaxHandles)	This threshold indicates the number of handles that a process can use, above which the process will be considered as a candidate for the Process Handle Leak indication.	300

The following table shows the default settings for this indication:

Setting	Default

Send indications to Tivoli Business Systems Manager	No
