Recovery

  1. A PDU is allocated to each message that arrives at a vSTP and is de-allocated when message processing completes. This measurement is useful for evaluating whether persistent network problems exist. In general, PDU buffers are engineered to match the processing capacity of the vSTP . If network problems exist, delaying the off-delaying of egress messages from the vSTP, then PDUs/messages will sit in internal SS7 queues. Under normal circumstances, the PDU Buffer Pool should never be 100% utilized.
  2. If the measurement is greater than zero, then a network (IP or SS7) problem may exist or a vSTP-specific software problem may exist (such as a buffer pool leak).
