Description: An index that uniquely identifies an entry in the hostTopN table among those in the same report. This index is between 1 and N, where N is the number of entries in this table. Increasing values of hostTopNIndex shall be assigned to entries with decreasing values of hostTopNRate until index N is assigned to the entry with the lowest value of hostTopNRate or there are no more hostTopNEntries.

What is hostTopNIndex?

Rank (1..N) of this host within its Top-N report, assigned in decreasing order of hostTopNRate — index 1 is the busiest host by the selected metric.
