N3T_OSA3_Not_Stored_Frames

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

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.

Formula: Not Stored Frames Received > 0

By default, this situation is run every 15 minutes and is not set to run automatically at startup.
