I've got a 24 core box over here, obviously I need to tweak the
configuration of the check_load plugin as it seems designed for a single
core machine by default.
define service{
use generic-service
host_name localhost
service_description Current Load
check_command check_load!20!18!16!22!19!18
}
My understanding is that this breaks down as follows
1, 5, 15 minute load average.
I've set it to the following.
Warning thresholds. (17 is 70% of 24)
20!18!16
So warn if it is currently 20, or averaging 17.
Critical thresholds.
22!19!18
Only one core, not maxed out, bad. Average above 22, bad.
Anyhow, my question is. Is this a sane configuration. It's pretty
generous with load. My usual load average is actually:
1.88 2.08 2.16
Any advice appreciated,
Bryan Hunt
