Continuously Monitoring for Alarms
To monitor your system continuously for alarms:
1 On the Sun server, log in as root, open an XTerm window, and switch
user to cnow. You can’t use a Telnet session for this purpose.
2 Change directories to
/rahome/bin
.
3 Type
./ra_monitor.pl
and press ENTER.
The ReadiVoice Monitoring Tool starts running. See Figure 5-4.
Leave this window open as long as you want to monitor the system. If you
close this XTerm session, monitoring stops.
Alternatively, you can run the monitoring tool as a background process by
entering
nohup ./ra_monitor.pl &
. Then you can close the XTerm window.

systreshold
Percentage of maximum system capacity at which a capacity alarm is
triggered. The default value is 80, which means an alarm occurs if the
number of available ports in your system drops to 80% or less of
sysmax_capacity. Change this number to the threshold you want to use
for system capacity alarms.
brgtreshold
Percentage of maximum bridge capacity at which a capacity alarm is
triggered. The default value is 80, which means an alarm occurs if the
number of available ports in an individual bridge drops to 80% or less of
brgmax_capacity. Change this number to the threshold you want to use
for bridge capacity alarms.
