Also, you can change the CPU utilization threshold value as per your requirement. + +**Output:** You will be getting an email alert similar to below. + +``` +Current CPU Utilization is: 80.40% +``` + +We had added many useful shell scripts in the past.

If your system reaches the limit at 8.25 then you will get an email alert in another 5 mins.
