Use DHCP Server attributes to create situations to monitor Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) messages sent and received by the server, the average amount of processing time spent by the server per message packet, and the number of message packets dropped because of internal delays at the server. DHCP Server is a single-instance attribute group. If the service being monitored is not installed or if the service is minimally loaded most attributes report 0 values.
Acks/sec Rate of DHCP Acks (acknowledgments) sent by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Active Queue Length The number of packets in the processing queue of the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions.

Conflict Check Queue Length The number of packets in the DHCP server queue waiting on conflict detection (ping). Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Declines/sec Rate of DHCP Declines received by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions.

Duplicates Dropped/sec Rate at which the DHCP server received duplicate packets. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Informs/sec Rate of DHCP Informs received by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Milliseconds Per Packet Average The average time per packet taken by the DHCP server to send a response. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Nacks/sec Rate of DHCP Nacks (negative acknowledgments) sent by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Offers/sec Rate of DHCP Offers sent out by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions.

Packets Expired/sec Rate at which packets get expired in the DHCP server message queue. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. Note: the value 2147483647 indicates Value_Exceeds_Maximum and the value -2147483648 indicates Value_Exceeds_Minimum.
Packets Received/sec Rate at which packets are received by the DHCP server. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions.

System Name The managed system name. The form should be hostname:agent_code.
Examples include spark:KNT or deux.raleigh.ibm.com:KNT.
In workspace queries, this attribute should be set equal to the value $NODE$ in order to populate the workspace with data. This attribute is generally not included in situations, unless there is a need to customize the situation for a specific managed system.
Timestamp The date and time the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server samples the data.
