Module: CISCO-ENHANCED-MEMPOOL-MIB

OID (symbolic): CISCO-ENHANCED-MEMPOOL-MIB::cempMemBufferFailures

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.221.1.1.2.1.21

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter32

Access: read-only

Description: The number of failures to grant a buffer to a requester due to reasons other than insufficient memory. For example, in systems where there are different execution contexts, it may be too expensive to create new buffers when running in certain contexts. In those cases it may be preferable to fail the request.

What is cempMemBufferFailures?

Reports the number of times a buffer request failed for reasons other than lack of memory, such as being too costly to create new buffers in a given execution context.

Examples
