SWP
The Swap Rate (SWP) sampler monitors system swap-out rate and produces a warning when the number of address spaces swapped out per minute exceeds a specified value.
Syntax
The parameters are defined as follows:
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
int | is the length of the sample period in intervals; the default sample period is 30 seconds (one interval) |
rate | is the swap rate per minute measured over one reporting interval that triggers a warning message |
Example
Assuming a report interval of 30 seconds, the following control statement displays warning messages at two-minute intervals if the swap-out rate exceeds 30 swaps-per-minute over the preceding two minutes:
SWP 4,30
Warning message
The following warning message is issued by the SWP sampler:
PWSSWP01 *WARNING* Swap-out rate is xxx swaps per minute
Message PWSSWP01 indicates that the swap rate has exceeded the warning threshold.
