Minecraft Monitoring and Metrics Options – InMotion Hosting

The Java and memory options in the Game Management Panel provide crucial control over how Minecraft instances perform.

These settings enable users to specify which version of Java to use, ensuring compatibility with Minecraft mods and plugins, and allowing the allocation of memory resources to enhance game performance.

Players can fine-tune these settings to optimize their Minecraft experience, balancing Java compatibility and memory allocation for smoother gameplay and reduced lag.

Select your Minecraft instance, then click the Manage button to the right
In the main menu, click the Configuration link
Navigate to Monitoring and Metrics

- Multicore CPU usage calculation
  - If this option is disabled, the amount of CPU usage will be determined based on using a single-core
  - Enable this if you are utilizing more than one core on your Minecraft server
- Ignore SMT Cores
  - Simultaneous multithreading or SMT is a method for managing multiple tasks on a single core
  - If this is enabled, the SMT is not taken into account and the usage will be based on the number of actual cores
- Console Scrollback Period
  - Here you can set in minutes how far back data will be included in the logs
  - Any changes to this setting will be saved immediately
- Full process metrics
  - Enabling this setting will result in your server collecting more detailed data on the tasks performed on your Game Management Panel
- User Friendly process metrics
  - Enabling this will cause the server to log only the actual memory that is used and will not include data that is stored or staged in the swap
  - This setting only works when Full process metrics are disabled
- Metrics polling interval
  - The number here is how often in milliseconds your Minecraft Game Panel will update the metrics
