Examples of the sysMonitor command
The following sections provide specific examples for the Environment class, CPU, and memory.
Environment class settings
Temperature settings are switch-dependent and there is no need to alter them. The default alarm
configuration, sending alerts to the error log and SNMP, is sufficient. See
“Environment monitoring
setting guidelines” on page 76 for more information.
Pausing and continuing monitoring
To pause the monitoring of a class, area, and port or index, enter the sysMonitor command using
the following parameters.
NOTE
You cannot specify all for all classes but you can specify all for all areas.
switch:admin> sysmonitor
--
pause |
--
continue env -area temp
Displaying the threshold of the system areas
The temperature area refers to the ambient temperature inside the switch, in degrees Celsius.
Temperature sensors monitor the switch in case the temperature rises to levels at which damage to
the switch might occur.
Enter the sysMonitor command using the following parameters:
switch:admin> sysmonitor
--
show env -area temp index
Example of configuring the temperature threshold
1. Enter the sysMonitor command using the following parameters:
switch:admin> sysmonitor --config env -area temp -highth -value 99
-trigger above -action raslog
2. Apply the changes:
switch:admin> sysmonitor --apply env -area temp -action_level cust
-thresh_level cust
Resource class settings
The flash area of the Resource class monitors the percentage of compact flash memory used on
the system.
Displaying the system flash parameters
Enter the sysMonitor command using the following parameters:
switch:admin> sysmonitor
--
show resource -area flash
