Note: The perf.thresholdAlerts commands are standard command line interface
features. They do not require a feature key.
Creating Threshhold Alerts
The tasks you need to complete to create and activate a threshold alert differ
depending on the type of alert you are creating. To implement a counter threshold
alert, see “Activating a Counter Threshold Alert” on page 179. To implement a
throughput alert, see “Activating a Throughput Threshold Alert” on page 180.
Activating a Counter Threshold Alert
In order to activate a counter threshold alert using the CLI, you must enter certain
commands in order. Enable the threshold alert using the following order:
1. Create a counter threshold alert using the command
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.addAlert. 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. Assign the threshold alert to a port using the command
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.addPort.
3. Configure the threshold alert using other perf.thresholdalert commands. For
example, you may want to associate the threshold alert counter with the
threshold alert name using the command
perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.setCounter. Use the following commands to
view alert settings and configure an alert:
■ perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.removePort
■ perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.setCounter
■ perf.thresholdAlerts.throughput.setParams
■ perf.thresholdAlerts.counter.show
■ perf.threshAlerts.counter.showStatisticTable
4. Once the alert is fully configured, it can be activated using the command
perf.thresholdAlerts.setState. An alert cannot be modified unless it is in the
disabled state.
