Description: Number of activated thresholds since startup

What is thresholdEventsSinceStartup?

This is a cumulative count of threshold activations since the thresholds engine process last started. A very high number relative to how recently the process started points to a flapping threshold, one whose configured limit sits too close to the metric's normal operating range and keeps triggering and clearing repeatedly. For example, 340 activations logged in the three days since a restart would strongly suggest a flapping threshold rather than 340 separate distinct problems.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.42.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::thresholdEventsSinceStartup

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.42.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CHECKPOINT-MIB::thresholdEventsSinceStartup.1
