Top Memory Utilization Routers/Switches - Gauge/Table

The Top Memory Utilization view for routers and switches lets you quickly determine which devices had the highest average memory utilization during a selected time frame.

A gauge-style chart shows average memory utilization values from the indicated device. The table view provides bar charts of memory utilization values, color-coded to indicate severity. In the table, the average memory utilization levels during the selected time frame are broken out by individual memory pool. Only the memory pools with the highest average memory utilization during the reporting period are included.

Click the name of an item to see more data from that item.

By default, the Top Memory Utilization view for routers and switches includes the following information:

Device Name

Identifies the managed item that was the source of the performance data. If an administrator defined an alias for the device item, the alias is displayed. Otherwise, the discovered device name is displayed.

Name

Is the name of the storage sector or memory bank on the indicated device.

Average Utilization

Is the average memory utilization value of the indicated device during the reporting interval.

The utilization statistic indicates the amount of memory capacity being used. The value is a percentage derived by dividing the used memory by the total physical memory on the device.

Edit Table View Settings

You can change several settings for each view on a dashboard. In addition to providing a new title, you can change settings that are related to severity ratings. To ensure excellent performance in a large reporting environment, you can set an upper limit on the number of results that are returned. You can also select another group context for the data.

3. Change the settings that are applied to the view if desired. Not all settings are available for all table view types:

   Moderate Status Start

   The lowest value for metrics that are displayed as Moderately Degraded in the view. Applies to the color-coding of gauge charts in gauge/table views.

   Default: Depends on the performance metrics reflected in the view. Click Use Defaults to revert to factory defaults.

   Critical Status Start

   The lowest value for metrics that are displayed as Critically Degraded in the view. Applies to the color-coding of gauge charts in gauge/table views.

   Default: Depends on the performance metrics reflected in the view.

   Max Rows

   Limits the number of table rows that are returned by the associated database query to preserve monitoring-system performance.

4. (Optional) Select the 'Time Filtering: Enabled' check box.
5. Select the Time Zone filter that best represents the geographic location of the business function. The list contains only time zones that are associated with the site groups of the current tenant.
6. Select the appropriate Business Hour filter. The options in the list are available only after you select a Time Zone filter.
