Description

It monitors CPU Load, CPU Utilization, Disk Utilization, Memory Utilization, System State, Device Readability and System Uptime. This template can be applied on vManage, vEdge, vSmart and vBond devices.

Prerequisites

Gateway should be up and running. Viptela monitoring is performed using API. Viptela API should be reachable from Gateway.

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
Frequency
  • Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource
  • Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
  • Warning ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
