  • 1.  cdm probe - Ideas for handling Peak hour alerts

    Posted Nov 08, 2016 11:48 PM

    Dear All,

     

    I would like to know what is the best practice in Nimsoft to handle the expected peak time alerts generated by cdm probe for either CPU or Memory resource utilisation . For example we have certain schedule activities like an antivirus scan or a backup activity which runs on the servers at a certain time as its expected to see a peak in resources and threshold may hit even 90% . Is there a way we can avoid these kind of alerts during certain times by analysing the behaviour.... kind of Dynamic Alarming? 

     

    We have a way of generating Dynamic Alarms by analysing the baseline in snmpcolelctor . Can we do something similar for cdm? I know we dont have Dynamic Alarm for cdm but what would be the best way to handle the expected spikes 

     

    Thanks,

    Phani

    Hi Phani_Devulapalli

     

    Please take a look at the following entries in communities explaining how to configure dynamic thresholds in cdm:

    Thanks Iulian, I dont seem to have the access to the links you posted ( the first too links) ...may be they are internal .Would it be possible for you to paste the content here directly ? I am specifically looking for info related to cdm 

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Phani

    Here are the 2 posts in pdf and the attached documentation on TOT, TTO and baselines and dynamic thresholds. These aren't internal posts so you should be able to access them with the same credentials you use for the communities.

    I hope they're useful.
