server threshold


Configures server thresholds for CPU and/or memory utilization.

Syntax: server server-id {CPU | memory} threshold [falling | rising | interval}

server-id

Identifies the server as set with the server-id command.

Description: In server configuration mode, use the server server-id CPU threshold [falling | rising | interval] command to set the threshold points. By setting the server's threshold set points, a trap generates when the CPU usage rises above the threshold's rising set point. When the CPU usage falls below the falling set point, the trap clears and resets. CPU usage is measured in percentages. Default values for CPU usage are 93% and 95%.

In addition, use the interval keyword to set the rate at which the rising and/or falling set points are checked. One or all three of the keywords may be used simultaneously. The default value for intervals is 15 seconds.

In server configuration mode, use the server server-id memory threshold [falling | rising | interval] command to set the threshold. By setting the server's threshold, a trap generates when the memory availability falls below the threshold's falling set point. When memory availability rises above the rising threshold set point, the trap clears and resets. Memory availability is measured in megabytes. Default values for memory usage are 5MB and 7MB.

In addition, use the interval keyword to set the rate at which the rising and/or falling ranges are checked. One of all three of the keywords may be used simultaneously. The default value for intervals is 15 seconds.

Table C-7

Default Threshold Values

Threshold Value Range

CPU usage: Rising: 95%, Falling 93%

75% to 100%

Memory: Rising: 7MB, Falling 5MB

0 to 100 MB

Interval: 15 seconds

5 to 40 seconds

Command Mode: Server Configuration.

Example 1: In the following example:



router(config)#server 1

router(config-server): CPU threshold falling 85 rising 93 interval 10

router(config-server): end

router# show rmon alarms

router# Alarm 65536 is active, owned by jason

Monitors aviciCPUTotal5sec.196609 every 15 seconds

Taking absolute samples, last value was 5

Rising threshold is 93, assigned to event 65536

Falling threshold is 85, assigned to event 65537

Interval is 10, assigned to 65538

On startup enable rising alarm

Alarm 65537 is active, owned by config

Example 2: In the following example:



router(config)#server 1

router(config-server): memory threshold falling 7 rising 10 interval 30

router(config-server): end

router# show rmon alarms

router# Alarm 65536 is active, owned by jason

Monitors aviciPlatformMemoryFree.196609 every 15 seconds

Taking absolute samples, last value was 521547720

Rising threshold is 10, assigned to event 65539

Falling threshold is 7, assigned to event 65540

Interval is 30, assigned to 65541

On startup enable falling alarm
