Configuring the Director
Configuring Threshold Alerts
A threshold alert notifies users when the transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx)
throughput reaches specified values for specific director ports or port
types, (E_Ports or F_Ports).
You are notified of a threshold alert in five ways:
◆
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that appears on the port
in the port card view.
◆
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that appears on the port
card in the Hardware view.
◆
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that appears in the Alert
column of the Port List view.
◆
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that appears by the
Threshold Alerts
field in the Port Properties window.
◆
Detailed threshold alert data is recorded in the Threshold Alert
Log.
Use the Threshold Alerts option on the Configure menu to configure
the following:
◆
Name for the alert
◆
Type of threshold for the alert (Rx, Tx, or either)
◆
Active or inactive state of the alert
◆
Threshold criteria:
• Percent traffic capacity utilized. This is the percent of the
port’s throughput capacity achieved by the measured
throughput. This setting constitutes the threshold value. For
example, the value of 50 means that the port’s threshold is
reached when throughput is 50 percent of capacity.
• Time interval during which throughput is measured and alert
notification can occur.
• The maximum cumulative time that the throughput
percentage threshold can be exceeded during the set time
interval before an alert is generated.
◆
Ports for which you are configuring threshold alerts
You can configure up to 16 alerts, and any number of alerts can be
active at one time.
