Cisco Nexus CPU Utilizaton

Post by hollanro »

Is CPU utilization for the Active Supervisor module the metric needing monitoring or do you need to monitor the CPU utilization on the Ethernet modules also?

Hi @hollanro,

Welcome to the Nagios Support Forum. Hope you are having a great day!

Since CPU spikes are normal on these kinds of devices, another option would be to monitor the average CPU loads.

How to Collect CPU Utilization on Cisco IOS Devices Using SNMP

It looks like most iOS devices will provide consolidated stats for CPU usage.

Let us know if you have more questions.
