Parameter Description
A master controller can support a combined total
of 256 branch and local controllers. The
<percentage> parameter is the percentage of the
total master controller capacity that must be
exceeded before the alert is sent. The default
threshold for this parameter is 80%.
total-tunnel-capacity <percentage>
Set an alert threshold for the controller’s tunnel
capacity. The <percentage> parameter is the
percentage of the controller’s total tunnel capacity
that must be exceeded before the alert is sent.
The default threshold for this parameter is 80%
user-capacity <percentage>
Set an alert threshold for the controller’s user
capacity. The <percentage> parameter is the
percentage of the total resource capacity that
must be exceeded before the alert is sent.
The default threshold for this parameter is 80%.
Usage Guidelines
The controller will send a wlsxThresholdExceeded SNMP trap and a syslog error message when the controller
has exceeded a set percentage of the total capacity for that resource. A wlsxThresholdCleared SNMP trap and
error message will be triggered if the resource usage drops below the threshold once again.
Example
The following command configures a new alert threshold for controlpath memory consumption:
(host) (config) #threshold datapath-cpu 90
If this threshold is exceeded then subsequently drops below the 90% threshold, the controller would send the
following two syslog error messages.
Mar 10 13:13:58 nanny[1393]: <399816> <ERRS> |nanny| Resource 'Control-Path Memory' has gone
above 90% threshold, value : 93
Mar 10 13:16:58 nanny[1393]: <399816> <ERRS> |nanny| Resource 'Control-Path Memory' has come
below 90% threshold, value : 87
