Troubleshooting Audit Alarms
Process Heap Memory Usage Exceeds Major Threshold Level—Audit (17)
The Process Heap Memory Usage Exceeds Major Threshold Level alarm (major) indicates that a process
heap memory usage major threshold level crossing has occurred. The primary cause of the alarm is that
the increase in heap usage is due to a high call volume of traffic, a maintenance operation, or a software
problem. To isolate and correct the primary cause of the alarm, schedule a switchover during a
maintenance window.
To show the process heap memory usage, use the following:
From UNIX prompt:
date
show_heap <pid of mga> > /opt/mga_heap.txt
The
show_heap
command is not on the system by default. To obtain the show_heap tool contact Cisco
TAC.
