I have two servers ubuntu 16, these servers are with 100% cpu available, but the cpu sensor shows that they are at 100% cpu usage.

How can I correct this?

Hello stsysadmin,

Thank you very much for your knowledge base post.

In what connection is "these servers are with 100% cpu available" and "the cpu sensor shows that they are at 100% cpu usage".

Please elaborate your case more in detail.

Best,
Sebastian
