Error Message
%RSC-6-CPU_LATENCY_REPORT
: CPU latency for [chars] priority process is [dec] msec.
The latency report threshold is set at [dec] msec.
Explanation The CPU latency has exceeded the maximum allowed value. CPU latency is determined
by calculating how much time it takes for a process to be rescheduled at a specified priority level.
If the CPU latency test does not recover, (the CPU latency does not drop below the threshold value),
a process at the priority level specified in the error message might be slow to respond to requests.
Recommended Action This is a report message only. No action is required. The CPU latency test
threshold may be fine tuned by changing the "cpu-latency [priority]-latency-threshold" value in
diagnostic-monitor configuration mode.
Error Message
%RSC-6-CPU_UTILISATION_REPORT

[dec].[dec]% worth of CPU in the last 5 seconds. The CPU utilisation report
threshold is set at [dec]%.
Explanation The indicated processes have exceeded the maximum allowed CPU utilization level
during the last five seconds. If the CPU utilization test does not recover (the CPU utilization value
does not drop below the threshold value), a process might be consuming excessive CPU, especially
if a CPU latency is reported at the same process priority level as the process specified in the error
message.
Recommended Action This is an informational message only. No action is required. The CPU
utilization test threshold can be fine tuned by changing the cpu-utilization-threshold value in the
diagnostic-monitor configuration mode.
Error Message
%RSC-4-DATADESCR_DECODE_ERROR
: Failed to find [chars] corresponding to if_index

–
The internal process received an unexpected major event.
–
The internal process cannot create a watched queue.
–
The internal process cannot create a chunk memory.
–
The internal process cannot create a process to service the ping response.
The Diagnostic monitor cannot detect MIL path-related errors until this condition is corrected.
Recommended Action If the test does not recover within the next few scheduled tests, reload the RSC
reporting the error during the nearest convenient maintenance window. If this error persists, copy
