Enable CPU monitoring after OCUM 5.2 upgrade

MIP_GMT01 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:49:55 GMT

We just upgraded from OCUM 5.0.1 to 5.2. CPU percentage monitoring is disabled after upgrade. Any idea how I can re-enable this?

Hi Muhammad,

This is done due to the CPU monitoring became more of a false positive esp starting Data ONTAP 8.1 and later.

So by default we decided to disable it starting OCUM 5.2. The advise is to rather use the Performance Adviser alerts for better performance alerting.

linux-t5gs:~ # dfm options list cpuMonInterval

Option Value

--------------- ------------------------------

cpuMonInterval Off

linux-t5gs:~ #

You can always go and turn this options ON as follows

linux-t5gs:~ # dfm options set cpuMonInterval=

Changed CPU monitoring interval to 5 minutes.

linux-t5gs:~ #

Regards

From 5.2 the CPU monitor is disabled by default, the monitor can be enabled by running following command:

# dfm option set cpumoninterval=

You might consider setting it to a higher value that the default of 5 minutes to ensure you do not receive false alerts.

# dfm option set cpumoninterval=30m

There will be a public report here that describes this eventually:
