Processor Buffer Full?

Votes:

0

This notice is one I don't recall seeing previously. How best to correct?

Ticket #1687: The flow processor buffer is full. The reason might be that PRTG is not able to process the flows. To resolve this issue, consider using remote probes. Also reduce the filtering and toplist parameter

Hello,

It would seem PRTG is not able to process all flows. Please have a look here for further information.

How many flow sensors are you using? We recommend to use less than 50 flow sensors per probe. Also this issue does not only depend on the traffic itself, but also on the filters and toplists being used. Check if the behavior persists if you reduce the filtering/toplist parameters or increase the scanning intervals.
