Issue/Introduction

We are receiving huge no of CPU alerts with sample 1 when we have set the no of samples to 3 in the CDM cfg file and on checking this is only happening after the server gets reboot.

Environment

Release : 20.3

Component : UIM - CDM WITH IOSTAT

Cause

Send alarm on each sample: allows you to generate an alarm on each sample, if selected.
If not selected, the probe waits for the number of samples (specified in the Samples field of the Control properties tab) before sending the alarm.
For example, if the Interval value is 1 minute and the Samples value is 2 under the Control Properties tab, and if this option is:
Unchecked: the probe generates the first alarm in 2 minutes and respective alarm at 1 minute interval.
Checked: the probe generates the first alarm in 1 minute and each respective alarm at 1 minute interval.

Resolution

Unchecking the following option ''Send alarm on each sample'' solves the issue.
