system matrix

system matrix

Use these commands to show system resource usage such as:

  • CPU usage

  • Memory usage

  • Network bandwidth usage

  • Network (IP layer) sessions

This background task monitors system resource usage every minute. If the usage of any resource exceeds the pre-defined alert value (85%), then a system event log is generated to record the current system resource usage.

The list continues to periodically refresh at the interval in delay <refresh-seconds_int>, or until you press q (quit) or Ctrl + C.

Syntax

diagnose system matrix [delay <refresh-seconds_int>]

Variable

Description

Default

delay <refresh-seconds_int>
