N3T_OSA3_Not_Stored_Frames  
Situation Description
Suggested Actions
Situation Description

The number of not stored frames has been greater than zero (0) for four consecutive 15-minute collection intervals.

 

Suggested Actions

Failing to have descriptor buffers available to store frames over consecutive collection intervals is an indication that the LAN is running near or at 100% utilization. Recommended remediation is to add an additional OSA-Express3 port of the same subtype. If you are running an OSA-Express3 Gigabit adapter, consider upgrading to OSA-Express3 10 Gigabit.

This warning situation is based on the Not Stored Frames Received attribute. By default, this situation is run every 15 minutes and is not set to run automatically at startup.
