No - neither is useful. > - Percentage Free Memory currently generates an alarm if it falls under > 10%.

(that is, if we are leaving it in in the first place) I'd just replace both with some measure of swapping activity. The metric we want (the one that indicates a problem) is that the use of swap should be small (relative to the amount of memory) and should remain at least fairly constant after the system has reached a steady state. Ideally, the actual swapping should be zero, but sometimes there's a little bit caused by non-sipXecs processes. _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev
