Usage
Thresholding on the system is used to monitor the system for conditions that could potentially cause errors or
outage. Typically, these conditions are temporary (i.e high CPU utilization, or packet collisions on a network)
and are quickly resolved. However, continuous or large numbers of these error conditions within a specific
time interval may be indicative of larger, more severe issues. The purpose of thresholding is to help identify
potentially severe conditions so that immediate action can be taken to minimize and/or avoid system
downtime.

Thresholding reports conditions using one of the following mechanisms:
SNMP traps: SNMP traps have been created that indicate the condition (high threshold crossing and/or
clear) of each of the monitored values. Complete descriptions and other information pertaining to
these traps is located in the starentMIB(8164).starentTraps(2)section of the SNMPMIB Reference.

The generation of specific traps can be enabled or disabled on the system allowing you to view only those
traps that are most important to you.

Logs: The system provides a facility called threshold for which active and event logs can be generated.
As with other system facilities, logs are generated Log messages pertaining to the condition of a
monitored value are generated with a severity level of WARNING.
