monitoring-interval (RCMD)

To configure interval (in minutes) in which to collect logs, use the monitoring-interval command in router-convergence configuration mode. To disable monitoring interval configuration, use the no form of this command.

monitoring-interval minutes

Syntax Description

minutes

Specifies the interval (in minutes) for collecting logs. The range is 5 to 120 minutes.

Periodic monitoring interval is 15 minutes.

Command Modes

Router-convergence configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

Release 4.2.0

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

The monitoring-interval timer controls the collection, processing, and archival (optional) of convergence data by RCMD server.

Periodic processing can get triggered if number of events detected exceed configured sizing parameters to prevent loss of data . However, this is not guaranteed since the mechanism is throttled.

To collect logs manually, use the rcmd trigger-data-collect command. Syslogs are generated when high churn is detected and collection mechanism is getting throttled. This indicates possible loss of data for some events. Throttling mechanism is for one processing every minute.

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-rcmd)#monitoring-interval 5

node disable (RCMD)

To disable monitoring of route convergence on specified location, use the node disable command in router-convergence configuration mode. To reinstate, monitoring on specified location, use the no form of this command.

node node-id disable

no node node-id disable

Syntax Description

node-id

Specifies line card locations for which RCMD monitoring be disabled. Disables RCMD monitoring on the specified node. No data from this node will be available in the reports that are generated. You can enter specific LCs or use wild cards.

Command Default

Update times are gathered and reported for all LCs. Diagnostic mode is disabled on all LCs.

Command Modes

Router-convergence configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

Release 4.2.0

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

Disable monitoring on specific LCs or racks for better scalability. Disable monitoring on LCs whose update times is not going to impact the core IGP/LDP convergence that RCMD is measuring.

On LCs where monitoring is enabled, the diagnostic mode can be enabled (with threshold value) for triggering script using EEM infra for debug data collection from the router. Use diagnostic mode only for debugging purpose since it is more CPU intensive as compared to normal RCMD monitoring.

Only the following combinations of Rack and Slot are acceptable:
  • */*/*

  • R/*/*

  • R/S/*

If a wildcard combination for any location is already disabled, then any other combination that overlaps with it would be rejected. For example,
  • If */*/* is disabled, then all other disable commands would be rejected

  • If R/*/* is disabled, then disable for */*/* and R/S/* would be rejected

  • If R/S/* is disabled, then disable for */*/* and R/*/* would be rejected

storage-location

To specify where to store the extended routing-diagnostics that are collected when threshold exceeds, use the storage-location command in router-convergence configuration mode. To disable storing routing-diagnostics to a specific location, use the no form of this command.

storage-location [diagnostics directory-path | diagnostics-size maximum-directory-size | reports directory-path | reports-size maximum-directory-size]

no storage-location

Syntax Description

diagnostics

Specifies an absolute directory path for storing diagnostic reports.

directory-path

Specifies the path of the absolute directory for storing diagnostic reports.

diagnostics-size

Specifies the maximum size of diagnostics directory.

maximum-directory-size

Specified the size of the diagnostics directory. The range is 5% to 80%.

reports

Specifies an absolute directory path for storing reports.

directory-path

Specifies the path of the absolute directory for storing reports.

reports-size

Specifies the maximum size of the reports directory. The range is 5% to 80%.

Command Default

No default storage location. Mechanism is disabled.

Command Modes

Router-convergence configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

Release 4.2.0

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator for assistance.

The storage location can be local disk or remote tftp space.

RCMD server can periodically archive reports in XML format for persistency. This mechanism is enabled when archival location is configured. Debug data collected in diagnostics mode is dumped to the configured diagnostic location (else it would get lost). When using local disk, the percentage of disk space to be used can be specified, and RCMD server will delete older reports on reaching the limit. Archival (specifically on local disk) is CPU intensive. Use a remote XML server to periodically collect reports from the router and archive on the server’s local storage.
