Threshold value

[Nikk]

Hi,

I made a threshold, on interface inbound traffic, which takes difference with previous value. I set threshold to 100 as the traffic on that interface isn't high. Then i get a alarm:

Threshold reached for data collection item "Outbound traffic on 2 (NetXMS Proxy) (packets/sec)" (Parameter: .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.11.2; Threshold value: 100; Actual value: 18446744073709551614)

I'm wondering, from where is that actual value coming from? The real values are all below 100.
Is my configuration wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Nikk

I mean Outbound traffic

Hi!

Can you show me also "General" and "Transformation" pages for that DCI?

Best regards,

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply, apparently i had a mistake - received data were average delta per second and data type was Unsigned Integer 64bit, then I changed to Integer, and error didn't appear anymore.

Thanks,

Hi,

I guess i'm still confused about this. So I put threshold on SNMP oid .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.7.  which is ifHCInUcastPkts (maybe that's because of 64bit version?), and set the threshold:
Difference between previous value;  samples:1
Function: >=    and value: 100000
And in Transformation tab: Simple Delta.
Standarat Data type for this is Unsigned integer. Then again, I get the same threshold violation message.

Threshold reached for data collection item "Unicast Packets Received on 48" (Parameter: .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.7.48; Threshold value: 100000; Actual value: 18446744073709551614)

, but real values are far below 100000.
Then I set Data type to simple Integer, and then it just don't receive any data.
Please point me to the right path!

Thanks in advance,
Nikk

For delta calculation to work properly, DCI data type should match actual data size. In your case, as you are using 64 bit counters, it should be unsigned 64 bit integer.

Unfortunately still getting wrong threshold violation alarm
