On my Hosteurope vServer, I keep getting these counter_cpu_share_used alerts in Virtuozzo, basically whenever I actively use my vServer.

As you can see, I get red alerts all the time. It happens I encode a video using ffmpeg, boot up my minecraft server (please don't judge me) or I install a wordpress plugin. Pretty much whenever I do something that uses the cpu for longer than a splitsecond. However, my average cpu usage is pretty low.

Do I have to worry about these alerts?

    Whether you have to worry about the alerts depends on what your service provider thinks of them. What did they say when you asked them the question? – Michael Hampton Jan 11 '19 at 01:02

I talked to my hoster and this was their response (translated from German):

These alerts simple mean, that the CPU load was high. If this only happens temporarily, it is not a problem. If we noticed that your server was permanently under load, we would've contacted you..

tl;dr Nothing to worry about.
