These metrics are available for Teradata Database alerts. The associated property names allow you to customize alert actions in the Alert Setup portlet or customize the message in the Monitored Systems portlet.

Metrics for Node and Vproc Alert Types

Net A Usage Percent of CPU usage that is not Total BYNET utilization (BYNET receiver usage) netAUse
Net A Usage (system level) Total BYNET utilization (average of the online BYNETs) on the system systemNetAUse
Node CPU Skew (system level) Comparison of CPU use on the busiest node to the average node on the system nodeCpuSkew
Node CPU Usage (system level) Average percent of CPU usage of all online nodes in the configuration on the system aveNodeCpuUsage
Node Disk Usage (system level) Average percent of disk usage of all online nodes in the configuration on the system aveNodeDiskUsage
PE CPU Usage (system level) Average percent of CPU usage of all online PEs in the configuration on the system avePeCpuUsage
Status

Status of the node or vproc, where U means the resource is up and D means the resource is down

With the is equal to comparison operator, The existing vproc status alerts starting with U/u and D/d migrate to U and D respectively.
status
Swaps Total number of swap reads and swap writes swaps
Total Sessions Number of sessions logged in to the PE sessLogCount

The following metrics are not available in the dialog box, but can be entered in the message included with the alert by using the property name with the syntax ${alertProperty}. These properties can also be used to customize alert actions in the Alert Setup portlet.

Metric Description Property Name
ID ID of the process procId
Node ID ID of the node nodeId
Vproc Number Number of the vproc vprocNo

Metrics for Database Space Alert Types

Metric Description Property Name
Current Perm % Percentage of the total permanent disk space the database is currently using (Current Perm divided by Max Perm) spaceUsedPct
Current Perm Max % Current Perm Max * Number of Vprocs / Max Perm maxSpaceUsedPct
Current Spool Space % Percentage of total temporary spool space the database is currently using (Current Spool divided by Max Spool) currentSpoolPer
Effective Perm Space % Larger of two values: Percentage of perm space used, accounting for the configured skew limit, on the highest utilized AMP or percentage of Perm space used in the database as a whole. effectivePermSpace
Peak Spool Space % Highest percentage of total temporary spool space the database has used (Peak Spool divided by Max Spool) peakSpoolPer

The following metric is not available in the dialog box, but can be entered in the message included with the alert by using the property name with the syntax ${alertProperty}. These properties can also be used to customize alert actions in the Alert Setup portlet.
