Capacity: System Pool Percent Used

This statistic shows the used percentage of the system pool capacity based on the raw pool size. It is used as a threshold alert and cannot be displayed in a graph. Unlike other statistics, it is updated every five minutes instead of every second.

To create this capacity alert in the CLI, navigate to the analytics and datasets context. If using worksheets, navigate to analytics, the desired worksheet, and then the dataset context. For datasets, use the "create" command. For worksheets, use the "set name" command. Below, the "\" character denotes a line break.

hostname:> analytics datasets
hostname:analytics datasets> create syscap.percentused

OR

hostname:> analytics
hostname:analytics> worksheets
hostname:analytics worksheets> select worksheet-000
hostname:analytics worksheets worksheet-000> dataset
hostname:analytics worksheets worksheet-000 dataset \
(uncommitted)> set name="syscap.percentused" 
hostname:analytics worksheets worksheet-000 dataset \
(uncommitted)> commit

When to Check System Pool Percent Used

This statistic can be used as a threshold alert for the used system pool capacity in a percentage. If the threshold is exceeded and the alert is triggered, you can mitigate the situation before the system pool becomes too full and performance is impacted. It is recommended that you set the threshold alert to 80 percent. For information on setting threshold alerts, see Configuring a Threshold Alert (BUI) or Configuring a Threshold Alert (CLI).

System Pool Percent Used Breakdowns

None.
