rsCapCPUCurrentUtilization5Sec
Module: RIVERSTONE-CAPACITY-MIB
OID (symbolic): RIVERSTONE-CAPACITY-MIB::rsCapCPUCurrentUtilization5Sec
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5567.2.270.5.1.1.2
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: Unsigned32
Access: read-only
Description: The CPU utilization expressed as an integer percentage. This is calculated over the last 5 seconds at a 0.1 second interval as a simple average.
What is rsCapCPUCurrentUtilization5Sec?
This read-only percentage reports the CPU's utilization averaged over just the last 5 seconds, sampled every 0.1 seconds and simply averaged. Administrators watch this short window to catch brief spikes in processing load, such as a burst of routing updates or an SNMP polling storm, that longer averages would smooth over. A reading of 95 here during a burst of activity, even if the 5-minute average looks calm, tells the admin the CPU is momentarily under heavy strain.
