Threshold Monitoring Behavior After a System Restart or Configuration Change

After a network device is restarted, NNMi does the following:

  • NNMi retains the device's former State value and updates the State value as soon as the new State is positively identified based on current configuration settings for Discovery and Monitoring.
  • If the prior State value were Not Polled, NNMi changes the State to Nominal before determining the new State.

After a Threshold setting is re-configured, NNMi can positively identify the current device State when any the following criteria are met:

  • For Count-Based Thresholds, High Trigger Count or Low Trigger Count is reached.
  • For Time-Based Thresholds:

    • High Window Duration or Low Window Duration is reached.
    • NNMi receives enough data samples to identify the State. For example, if the Threshold definition setting is monitoring a value for 20 out of 30 minutes and the threshold is crossed within the first 20 minutes, then NNMi can update the State after 20 minutes has passed.
