Total-sw-err when run the stateful profile with -m 10000

[Mohan]

Hi,

I am testing below profile with different multiplier -m 1000 and -m 10000.

No error has thrown when run the below profile with multiplier -m 1000.

stateful profile:

- duration : 10.0
  generator : 
          distribution : "seq"
          clients_start : "16.0.0.1"
          clients_end   : "16.0.1.255"
          servers_start : "48.0.0.1"
          servers_end   : "48.0.0.255"
          clients_per_gb : 201
          min_clients    : 101
          dual_port_mask : "1.0.0.0"
          tcp_aging      : 1
          udp_aging      : 1
 
  cap_ipg : true
  cap_info :
     - name: cap2/dns.pcap
       cps : 1
       ipg : 10000
       rtt : 10000
       w   : 1

     - name: avl/delay_10_http_browsing_0.pcap
       cps : 1
       ipg : 10000
       rtt : 10000
       w   : 1

CPU utilization has touched 75% when using -m 10000

some please explain what Total-sw-err means.

Is Total-sw-err occur because that I have run the traffic with large number of flows than I should have.

Thanks and Regards,

Mohan

It means you have queue-full signal while sending traffic. try to look into the manual for the meaning of queue-full
