Question about Linux Memory alert

[Taylor Lewick]

Hi all.  I've setup the hobbit-clients.cfg with the following for memory
for our linux servers...

 

PAGE=NY/NY-Linux

MEMPHYS 100 101

MEMSWAP 60 80

MEMACT  90 95 

 

I've done this because the Physical Memory on the linux machines always
shows quite high due to Linux's memory management, and thus far its
worked great.

But today we started receiving alerts on a host that the physical memory
is 99%.  The actual memory is only 10% used, so my question is why am I
getting alerts on this host.

 

Thanks,

Taylor
