Hi all!
we have set SNMP stats on our production server. The server is only
receiving 1% of the calls, less than 1 CAPS, but we are receiving some SNMP
alarms that are a bit weird to us.

This is an example.
As we were unsure about the thresholds to be set for Msg Queue, we set
Minor to 20 and Major to 100, which resulted in some alarms when we
exceeded the Major threshold.
From our understanding, the Max Major MSG Queue threshold was 2176, which
obviously generated an alarm.
But we can't understand why when a Msg Queue depth of 1280 generated an
Minor Threshold alarm when the threshold is 20!! Why not generate a Major
Threshold alarm instead, as it did reach the Major Threshold ?
Also, does anyone have a clue on how to estimate Major and Minor
thresholds?
How does this Msg Queue handler work? Is it Kamailio's level or on
OS/Kernel level that it gets the statistics from?
Apart from the official Kamailio SNMPStats docs, any doc or article one
would share?
greatly appreciated.
( I so much hate SNMP!!! :) )
