Hi BigSam,
Not sure what this has to do with AD.
A sustained processor queue length > 2 might indicate a bottle neck with your processor. Get a faster one.

I'm evaluating some monitoring software. One component is monitoring my W2k3
Active Directory servers - 2 of them. One server is constantly exceeding the
OS Processor Queue Length. The values range from 6 to 23 with an average of
13.2.

I'm kinda lost on this one - probably due to too little AD experience. The
only information I've seen on this is related to MOM, which I don't have, but
nothing is telling me what can cause this, how important this alert is, nor
what to do to resolve it.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks
