Memory is exceeding threshold on at least one host

Description

This alert is triggered when RAM is exceeding the defined threshold on at least one host for at least 5 consecutive minutes.

Resolution Guidance

Impact When Active

When memory usage remains above the threshold on a host for an extended period, the server may experience performance degradation, such as slower response times, increased memory swapping to disk, or a higher risk of out-of-memory conditions that can disrupt applications or services.

To resolve this alert, you can try:

• Login to Kibana.
• Click on the alert link in Relativity to navigate to Kibana Dashboard.
• Identify the affected host from the navigated alert dashboard.
• Investigate the processes consuming high memory on the affected host.
• Review recent changes or workload increases that may have caused the memory spike.
• If high memory usage persists, consider scaling memory resources or redistributing workloads.
• Monitor the host to ensure memory utilization returns to normal levels.
