Configure 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 by:
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays on the port in the Port Card View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays on the port card in the Hardware
View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays in the Alert column of the Port
List View.
An attention indicator (yellow triangle) that displays by the Threshold Alerts field in
the Port Properties dialog box.
Detailed threshold alert data 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 a value of 50 means that the port's threshold is
reached when throughput is 50% 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.
