process_memory_usage which will contain the command used to start the process and search for the appropriate node process.abhinav

11:03 AMThe dashboard can only help you know the current memory usage. They will not tell you the reason for the memory leak. As I mentioned earlier, if you are already using the host-metrics package, you do not need to run the “infra agent” to collect system or process memory usage. There will be a metric named
process_memory_usage which can be used to track the memory consumption of a particular kind of process.
