SnmpresMemUsage

Path: /model/vendors/snmp_research/snmpres_mem_usage.mod

This behavior model monitors the status of the system memory. When the memory utilization exceeds the threshold (90 percent by default) and remains above the threshold for a specified time (the default is fifteen minutes), NerveCenter sends a 110051 Inform to the platform. When the memory utilization falls below the threshold, the alarm returns to ground and sends a 120051 Inform to the platform. The nodes that have their memory utilization monitored must be associated with a property group that contains the property hrStrorageEntry.

Property

The following property must be in the property group for the nodes hosting the applications you want to monitor:

hrStrorageEntry

Trigger Generators

Below is a list of the objects that generate triggers:
