The system allows the configuration of server health monitoring events. With these events it is possible to monitor the system's CPU and memory usage and trigger events in the event of an abnormality.
CPU monitoring will monitor the global CPU of the server (and not just the system server process). It is possible to configure a usage limit and a timeout, where if the global CPU usage goes above the configured limit for the specified time, then the event will be triggered. A restore to normal (Below Threshold) event can be triggered when CPU usage returns below the threshold.
RAM monitoring will only monitor memory usage by the system server process (Server.exe). It is possible to configure a limit for memory usage by the server, where if the usage goes above the configured limit, then the event will be generated. A restore to normal (Below Threshold) event can be triggered when RAM usage returns below the threshold.
•CPU Events:
oActivate Global CPU Usage Limit Event: Trigger an event when CPU usage remains above a configured threshold for a long time.
▪CPU Usage Percentage to trigger the event: Enter the threshold value that will be used to trigger the event if CPU usage remains above this value.
▪CPU usage time above limit: Enter the value (In seconds) for the event to trigger if the CPU is above the configured limit for more than this configured time.
▪Event Rearm Time: Rearm time, where the system will wait the configured time before triggering a new event (If CPU usage still remains high)
▪Event Actions: Desired event actions when this event is triggered. To learn more about alarm actions see chapter How to configure event actions.
oActivate Return to Normal CPU Usage Event: Trigger an event when CPU usage normalizes below the configured threshold.
▪Event Actions: Desired event actions when this event is triggered. To learn more about alarm actions see chapter How to configure event actions.
•Memory Events:
oActivate Memory Usage Limit Event (By server process only, not global): Triggers an event when memory usage by the VMS server service is above a configured threshold.
▪Memory Usage Limit (In MB) to Trigger the Event: Specify the limit in Megabytes of memory usage of the VMS server process to trigger the event.
▪Event Actions: Desired event actions when this event is triggered. To learn more about alarm actions see chapter How to configure event actions.
oActivate Return to Normal Memory Usage Event: Trigger an event when memory usage normalizes below the configured threshold.
▪Event Actions: Desired event actions when this event is triggered. To learn more about alarm actions see chapter How to configure event actions.
