Measures reported by CisNexusProcMemTest

This test monitors the processor of the Cisco Nexus Switch and reports the size of the RAM and NVRAM of the processor. In addition, this test reports how well the NVRAM is being utilized and how much of NVRAM is available for use. Using this test, administrators can identify if enough memory resources are available for the processor to function without a glitch! If memory resources are depleting, then administrators can add additional resources to avoid malfunctioning of the Cisco nexus Switch.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Total_RAM_size Indicates the total size of the RAM. MB  
NVRAM_size Indicates the total size of non volatile RAM in the switch. MB  
NVRAM_used_space Indicates the amount of non volatile RAM that is already utilized in the Nexus processor. MB  
NVRAM_free_space Indicates the amount of non volatile RAM that is still available for use in the Nexus processor. MB  
NVRAM_space_usage Indicates the percentage of non volatile RAM that is utilized in the Nexus processor. Percent A low value is desired for this measure.
