Users Guide

The util-threshold cpu command allows you to configure the high and low threshold values. Before configuring the
threshold values, configure a syslog server to collect and store the syslog messages. To view the configured CPU utilization
thresholds, use the show util-threshold cpu command.
NOTE: During image installation, upgrade, or reload with default threshold values, CPU utilization might cross the threshold
values and therefore trigger alarms. These alarms eventually clear after the installation, upgrade, or reload is completed.
Example of configuring CPU utilization threshold values
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# logging server 10.10.10.11
OS10(config)# util-threshold cpu 1min high 10 low 5
OS10(config)# util-threshold cpu 5min high 80 low 70
OS10(config)# exit
OS10# show util-threshold cpu
