faildetect

Use this command to configure the probe faildetect object parameters.

Syntax

faildetect {[count count] [interval seconds]}
no faildetect {[count count] [interval seconds]}

Parameters

count count (Optional) Specifies the consecutive number of failed attempts before the service is declared down. Valid values are 1 - 65535 attempts. The default value is 3 attempts.
interval seconds (Optional) Specifies the delay between probes to a service that is up. Valid values are 2 - 300 seconds. The default value is 10 seconds.

Defaults

Any parameter not specified remains at its current value. You must specify at least one parameter.

Mode

State probe configuration mode.

Usage

Fail detection is used to determine if a service is up. When the number of consecutive failed retries equals the fail detection count value, the service is declared down.

Modifying the interval will not update for currently scheduled sessions. The new interval value takes affect for any subsequently scheduled probes.

Use the no faildetect command to reset the faildetect count and interval to the default values of 3 attempts for count and 10 seconds for interval.

Examples

This example sets the number of failed attempts before a service is declared down to 5 and the interval between probes, when a service is up, to 15 seconds:

System(su-config)->probe docUdp1 udp
System(su-config-probe)->faildetect count 5 interval 15
System(su-config-probe)->
