Description: This attribute indicates the processor's maximum memory utilization of shared message blocks, calculated over a specified time period, timeInterval. This utilization value is calculated using 15 second samples. At the start of each timeInterval, this maximum memory utilization is reset to the current usage, sharedMsgBlockUsage. If there is no shared memory on the card, this attribute indicates 0.

What is mscShelfCardMsgBlockUsageAvgMax?

Reports the maximum shared message-block memory utilization observed over the current mscShelfCardTimeInterval window, sampled every 15 seconds - a rising max here can warn of memory pressure before it becomes a problem.
