Configuring the Director Configuring Threshold Alerts A threshold alert notifies users when the transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) throughput reaches specified values for specific director ports or port types, (E_Ports or F_Ports). You are notified of a threshold alert by: ■ A yellow triangle that displays on the port in the Port Card View. ■ A yellow triangle that displays on the port in the Hardware View. ■ A yellow triangle that displays in the Alert column of the Port List View. ■ A yellow triangle that displays by the Threshold Alerts field in the Port Properties dialog box. ■ Detailed threshold alert data recorded in the Threshold Alert Log. Use the Threshold Alerts option on the Configure menu to configure the following: ■ Name for the alert. ■ Type of threshold for the alert (Rx, Tx, or either). ■ Active or inactive state of the alert. ■ Threshold criteria: - Percent traffic capacity utilized-The percent of the port's throughput capacity achieved by the measured throughput. This setting constitutes the threshold value. For example a value of 50 means that the port's threshold is reached when throughput is 50% of capacity. - Time interval during which throughput is measured and alert notification can occur. - The maximum cumulative time that the throughput percentage threshold can be exceeded during the set time interval before an alert is generated. ■ Ports for which you are configuring threshold alerts. You can configure up to 16 alerts, and any number of alerts can be active at one time. Use the following procedures to create a new threshold alert, or to modify, activate, deactivate, or delete an alert. Creating New Alerts 1.
