util-threshold memory
Configure the high or low memory utilization thresholds for SNMP traps.
C9000 Series
Syntax
util—threshold memory {all | cp | lp slot–id | pe | rp [high {0-100} | low
{0-100}]}
Parameters
all Enter the keyword all to configure the memory utilization threshold on all switch CPUs:
Control Processor, Route Processor, line cards, and port extenders (PE).
cp Enter the keyword cp to configure the memory utilization threshold for the Control
Processor CPU.
lp
slot-id
Enter the keyword lp and the linecard processor (lp) slot-id for which you want to
configure the CPU utilization time. The range for lp slot-id is from 0 to 11.
pe Enter the keywordpe to configure the CPU utilization time for port extenders (PE)
configured in the system.
NOTE: The pe option is only available when the extended bridge feature is
enabled.
rp Enter the keyword rp to configure the memory utilization threshold for the Route
Processor CPU.
{{high | low}
cpu-
utilization-
threshold-
percentage
}
Enter a percentage value to configure the high or low threshold level for the percentage
of memory a switch CPU can use. The percentage of memory utilization ranges from 0 to
100.
NOTE: A threshold level of 0 disables Syslog and SNMP traps.
Default
• High threshold: 92%
• Low threshold: 82%

Command History
Version Description
9.10(0.0) Introduced the Configuration Terminal Batch mode on C9010.
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the C9010.
9.2(1.0) Introduced on the Z9500.
8.3.19.0 Introduced on the S4820T.
8.3.11.1 Introduced on the Z9000.
8.3.7.0 Introduced on the S4810.
Usage Information When the total memory utilization for a CPU exceeds the configured high/low threshold for a given time, a
threshold notification is sent as an SNMP trap. If a low threshold value is not specified, the low threshold value is
set to the same value as the high threshold value.
To return the memory thresholds to the default values, enter the no util-threshold mem all | cp |
lp slot—id | pe | rp command.
Use this command in Configuration Terminal Batch mode to configure the memory utilization thresholds in a dual-
homing setup.
Example cp
Dell(conf)# util-threshold memory cp high 75 low 67
