An Overload Profile specifies a set of congestion thresholds

, congestion durations, and overload controls. When a particular threshold is exceeded for a particular duration for any of the call processing related processes

and congestion durations you can assign to a particular machine congestion (MC) level. When the "set" threshold for the profile assigned to a particular congestion level is exceeded for the "set" duration, the congestion level is raised to a higher level

and the overload control is

and overload controls are applied to help alleviate the congestion. The profile also specifies "clear" congestion thresholds and durations.

These values require that the overload conditions fall below their configured clear threshold values for a specific

The clear values specify the level to which congestion conditions must fall for the specified duration in order to return to the previous congestion level. These minimum clear durations prevent repeatedly switching in and out of congestion levels. You may

    Set Threshold

    Use this parameter to specify CPU and memory Set Threshold for a monitored resource.

    • cpu – CPU utilization percentage threshold at which the congestion level is set. (range: 0-100 / default = 85. A value of 0 disables CPU utilization as a congestion criterion.
    Clear Threshold

    Use this parameter to specify CPU and memory Clear Threshold for a monitored resource.

    • cpu – CPU utilization percentage threshold at which a congestion level is set or cleared. The clear threshold must be less than or equal to the set threshold. (range: 0-100 / default = 80).
    Set Duration

    Use this parameter to specify CPU and memory Set Duration for a monitored resource.

    • cpu – Length of time (in seconds) that CPU utilization percentage is above its set threshold before congestion level is set. (range: 0-65535 / default = 10). A value of zero sets the congestion level immediately.

    Clear Duration

    Use this parameter to specify CPU and memory Clear Duration for a monitored resource.

    • cpu -Length of time (in seconds) that CPU utilization percentage must be below its clear threshold before congestion level clears. A value of zero clears the congestion level immediately. (range: 0-65535 / default = 10).

    Static Mode

    Use this object to define the call accept percentage rate.

    • acceptPercentage – The rate (as percentage) to accept calls for the specified congestion level. (range: 0-100 / default = 100). A value of 0 rejects all calls. A value of 100 accepts all calls.
