Simple Logger Event Throttling
Simple event throttling provides a mechanism to protect event receivers from being overloaded
when a scenario causes many events to be generated in a very short period of time. A throttling
rate, # events/# seconds, can be configured. Specific event types can be configured to be throttled.
Once the throttling event limit is exceeded in a throttling interval, any further events of that type
cause the dropped events counter to be incremented. Dropped events counts are displayed by the
show>log>event-control context. Events are dropped before being sent to one of the logger event
collector tasks. There is no record of the details of the dropped events and therefore no way to
retrieve event history data lost by this throttling method.
A particular event type can be generated by multiple managed objects within the system. At the
point this throttling method is applied the logger application has no information about the
managed object that generated the event and cannot distinguish between events generated by
object “A” from events generated by object “B”. If the events have the same event-id, they are
throttled regardless of the managed object that generated them. It also does not know which
events may eventually be logged to destination log-id <n> from events that will be logged to
destination log-id <m>.
Throttle rate applies commonly to all event types. It is not configurable for a specific event-type.
A timer task checks for events dropped by throttling when the throttle interval expires. If any
events have been dropped, a TIMETRA-SYSTEM-MIB::tmnxTrapDropped notification is sent.
