Monitoring SGM Resources (asg resource)

Description

Use the "asg resource" command in Gaia gClishClosed The name of the global command line shell in Check Point Gaia operating system for Security Gateway Modules. Commands you run in this shell apply to all Security Gateway Module in the Security Group. or the Expert mode to show this information for Security GroupClosed A logical group of Security Gateway Modules that provides Active/Active cluster functionality. A Security Group can contain one or more Security Gateway Modules. Security Groups work separately and independently from each other. To the production networks, a Security Group appears a single Security Gateway. Members:

  • RAM and Storage usage and thresholds

  • SSD Health

Syntax

asg resource -h

asg resource [-b <SGM IDs>]

asg resource --ssd [-v]

Parameters

Parameter

Description

No Parameters

Shows both the Resource (RAM and Storage) and SSD Health information.

-h

Shows the built-in help.

-b <SGM IDs>

Applies to Security Group Members as specified by the <SGM IDs>.

<SGM IDs> can be:

  • No <SGM IDs> specified, or all

    Applies to all Security Group Members and all Chassis

  • One Security Group Member (for example, 1_1)

  • A comma-separated list of Security Group Members (for example, 1_1,1_4)

  • A range of Security Group Members (for example, 1_1-1_4)

  • In Dual Chassis, one Chassis (chassis1, or chassis2)

  • In Dual Chassis, the Active Chassis (chassis_active)

--ssd [-v]

Shows only the SSD Health information for all Security Group Members:

  • --ssd

    Shows summary information only (whether it passed the SMART test)

  • --ssd -v

    Shows the summary and verbose information (SSD SMART Attributes)

Description for the Resource Table section

Column

Description

Member ID

Shows the Security Group Member ID.

Resource Name

Identifies the resource.

There are four types of resources:

  • Memory

  • HD - Hard drive space (/)

  • HD: /var/log - Space on hard drive committed to log files

  • HD: /boot - Location of the kernel

Usage

Shows the percentage of the resource in use.

Threshold

Indicates the health and functionality of the component.

When the value of the resource is greater than the threshold, an alert is sent.

You can modify the threshold in GaiaClosed Check Point security operating system that combines the strengths of both SecurePlatform and IPSO operating systems. gClish.

Total

Total absolute value in units.

For example, the first row shows that Security Appliance1 on Chassis1 has 62.8 GB of RAM, and 21% of it are used. An alert is sent, if the usage is greater than 50%.

Description for the SMART Attributes section

Column

Description

SMART overall-health

Shows the state of the SMART test - passed, or failed.

ID

Shows the attribute ID in the decimal format.

Attribute name

Shows the attribute name.

Value

Shows the current value as returned by the SSD.

This is a most universal measurement, on the scale from 0 (bad) to some maximum (good) value.

Maximum values are typically 100, 200 or 253.

The higher the value, the better the SSD health is.

Trhesh

Shows the current threshold.

This is the minimum value limit for the attribute.

If the value falls below this threshold, the SSD should be checked for errors, and possibly replaced.

Last_failed

Shows when a failure was last reported for this attribute.
