perf.thresholdAlerts Commands
The perf.thresholdAlerts commands enable you to configure alerts that
notify you of specific conditions on your system.
You can configure a total of 16 threshold alerts, including both counter threshold
alerts (CTAs) and throughput threshold alerts (TTAs). For a list of the available
threshold alerts counters, see Table 4.
The perf.thresholdAlerts commands are standard CLI features. They do
not require a feature key.
In order to activate a threshold alert using the CLI, you must enter certain
commands in a specific order. Enable a threshold alert using the following order:
1. Create a counter threshold alert using the
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.addAlert command, described on page 161. Use
this command to create a name for the threshold alert that you can use in
subsequent commands. The threshold alert must then be configured using the
other counter threshold alert commands.
2. Associate the threshold alert counter with the threshold alert name using the
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.setCounter command, described on page 166.
3. Configure the threshold alert using other perf.threshold alert commands. For
example, you should assign the threshold alert to a port using the command
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.addPort, described on page 162.
4. Once the alert is fully configured, it can be activated using the
perf.thresholdAlerts.setState command, described on page 171. An alert
cannot be modified unless it is in the disabled state.
