krNumOfVForksCalled

Module: KERNEL-READER-SUNMANAGEMENTCENTER-MIB

OID (symbolic): KERNEL-READER-SUNMANAGEMENTCENTER-MIB::krNumOfVForksCalled

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.12.2.2.12.5.5.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter64

Access: read-only

Description: The rate of number of vforks called. Number of vforks called is calculated at different times which is either when refresh interval reaches or when the mannual refresh is issued. If at time T1 the value is X and at time T2 the value is Y then krNumOfVForksCalled = (Y - X)/(T2 - T1).

What is krNumOfVForksCalled?

Rate of vfork() calls made on this CPU, a lighter-weight process-creation path than fork(); tracked separately since heavy vfork() use has different performance implications, typical of shell exec patterns.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.12.2.2.12.5.5.1.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> KERNEL-READER-SUNMANAGEMENTCENTER-MIB::krNumOfVForksCalled

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.12.2.2.12.5.5.1.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> KERNEL-READER-SUNMANAGEMENTCENTER-MIB::krNumOfVForksCalled.1
