Software Watchdog Response Actions

When a monitored thread returns a health reference count of 0, the system defines the thread as unresponsive and responds with the sw-health-check-action that you set in system-config.

  • Log—Back trace the unresponsive thread and display the log message "No health update reported by task." Generates the apUsbcSysThreadNotRespondingTrap trap.

    See the apUsbc MIB in the MIB Reference Guide for the apUsbcSysThreadNotRespondingTrap trap definition.

  • Log Reboot—Adds rebooting to logging.
  • Log Core Reboot (default)—Adds generating a core file to logging and rebooting.

Note:

Any change to the response settings requires a reboot.
