Process Resource Monitor

When running a shared server environment, you must be extremely aware of activity which can take down your server. One rogue hosting account can ruin things for everyone.

While you should not allow an account to run poorly written scripts which create server intensive processes, a host should also not leave the server unprotected from scripts which will increase the server load and bog or bring down the server.

Enter PRM. Process Resource Monitor will monitor processes on the server and check it for exceeding resource limits which you set in the config file. To be sure it doesn’t kill legitimate processes, you set the number of times a process must exceed your rules and the number of seconds between checks for a process to be killed.

PRM will keep your shared enviromnent running smoothly and help ensure one account does not bog down the server for everyone.
