Measures reported by IBMDPCPUUsgeTest

This test measures the CPU utilization of the device over three time intervals, 10 seconds, 1 minute, and 10 minutes. If the device is found to consume CPU resources excessively, then, this test will help administrators to determine when exactly did the CPU utilization peak - during the last 10 sec? or 1 minute? or 10 minutes? This revelation helps administrators troubleshoot the CPU spikes better.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target device being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Usage_last_10sec Indicates the average CPU usage of the Datapower device in last 10 seconds. Number By comparing the values of these measures, you can quickly figure out when exactly was the CPU usage maximum. If the CPU spikes sustains for consecutive measurements then it is a cause of concern. Using this analysis, administrators can further investigate the real reason behind the sudden spike in the CPU usage.
Usage_last_min Indicates the average CPU usage of the Datapower device in last 1 minute. Number
Usage_last_10min Indicates the average CPU usage of the Datapower device in last 10 minute. Number
