Activate SMB performance monitoring sensors
The activate SMB performance monitoring sensors DMP assists to activate the inactive SMB sensors.
The following are the corresponding event details and the proposed solution:
- Event ID: smb_sensors_inactive
- Problem: The SMB performance cannot be monitored because either one or both the SMBStats and SMBGlobalStats sensors are inactive.
- Solution: Activate the SMB sensors.
The DMP provides the option to activate the SMB monitoring sensor and select a data collection interval that defines how frequently the sensors must collect data. It is recommended to select a value that is greater than or equal to 10 as the data collection frequency to reduce the impact on the system performance.
The system issues the mmperfmon command to activate the sensors as given in
the following format:
/usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmperfmon config update SMBStats.restrict=cesNodes SMBStats.period=<<seconds>>For example: /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmperfmon config update SMBStats.restrict=cesNodes SMBStats.period=10
