ibmSystemProcessorCurrentClockSpeed

Module: IBM-SYSTEM-PROCESSOR-MIB

OID (symbolic): IBM-SYSTEM-PROCESSOR-MIB::ibmSystemProcessorCurrentClockSpeed

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.159.1.1.140.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Uint32

Access: read-only

Description: The current speed (in MHz) of this Processor.

What is ibmSystemProcessorCurrentClockSpeed?

This reports the current operating clock speed of this processor in MHz. Admins monitor this to detect CPU throttling, for example due to thermal limits or power management, by comparing it against the processor's maximum rated speed. For example, a current speed of 1800 MHz on a processor whose max speed is 3200 MHz would indicate the CPU is running throttled.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.159.1.1.140.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IBM-SYSTEM-PROCESSOR-MIB::ibmSystemProcessorCurrentClockSpeed

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.159.1.1.140.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IBM-SYSTEM-PROCESSOR-MIB::ibmSystemProcessorCurrentClockSpeed.1
