Cisco Systems 5 Response Time, Short-Term Long-Term, Normal Minimum, WS-SVC-NAM-1 Hours Days

Chapter 2 Setting Up The NAM Traffic Analyzer

Monitoring

The aggregation intervals determine how much data can be stored in the NAM database. See Table 2-35, Data Retention for information about data retention.

Table 2-35	Data Retention
		Short-Term	Short-Term	Long-Term	Long-Term
		Aggregated Data	Aggregated Data	Aggregated Data	Aggregated Data
		(Normal)	(Minimum)	(Normal)1	(Minimum)
WS-SVC-NAM-1 and		24 hours	5 hours	30 days	10 days
WS-SVC-NAM-2
All other platforms		72 hours	14 hours	100 days (with	30 days (with
				default polling	default polling
				interval)	interval)

1. Can depend on how the user configures the LT polling interval. The more frequent polling, the shorter the duration.

Response Time

To configure the timing parameters (or buckets) for response time data collections:

Step 1 Choose Setup > Monitoring > Response Time.

The Response Time Configuration page displays. The settings you make on this window comprise the time distribution in milliseconds for the detailed Server Application Response Time data collection.

Step 2 Check the “Enable Response Time Monitor” check box.

Step 3 After “Monitored Server Filter”, you will see “Disabled” or “Enabled.” If a WAAS server has been configured under Setup > Monitoring > WAAS Servers, you will see “Enabled.” Click the Configure Filter button to configure a filter.

Step 4 Enter the Response Time settings as described in Table 2-36, Response Time Configuration Window.

				first bucket	default is 5.
		RspTime2 (msec)		Upper response time limit for the	Enter a number in milliseconds. The

		RspTime3 (msec)		Upper response time limit for the	Enter a number in milliseconds. The
				third bucket	default is 50.
		RspTime4 (msec)		Upper response time limit for the	Enter a number in milliseconds. The
