The following parameters can be optionally set with the --enable and --config 
commands. Any numerical parameters not specified with the --config option will 
retain the current configured values. Whereas, any parameters not specified with 
the --enable option will assume their default values.
-alert
Enables both congestion and latency alerts. You can optionally specify either a 
congestion threshold or a latency threshold, or both. This operand is optional; if 
omitted, the alerts are disabled. To retain the current alert configuration, you must 
specify the -alert options for every --config operation.
-alert=congestion
Enables congestion alerts only. You can optionally specify a congestion threshold 
for this type of alert. Latency thresholds are not valid.
-alert=latency
Enables latency alerts only. You can optionally specify a latency threshold for this 
type of alert. Congestion thresholds are not valid. 
When you specify one of the three alert options, the following parameters become 
available, although the threshold options are subject to the restrictions stated 
above.
-cthresh congestion_threshold
Specifies the severity threshold for congestion that triggers an alert. The 
threshold indicates the percentage of one-second intervals affected by the 
bottleneck condition within the specified time window. The threshold is 
expressed as the equivalent fraction between 0 and 1. The default value is 
0.8. 
-lthresh latency_threshold
Specifies the severity threshold for latency that triggers an alert. The 
threshold indicates the percentage of one-second intervals affected by the 
bottleneck condition within the specified time window. The threshold is 
expressed as the equivalent fraction between 0 and 1. The default value is 
0.1.
-time window
Specifies the time window in seconds over which the percentage of seconds 
affected by bottleneck conditions is computed and compared with the 
threshold. The maximum window size is 10800 seconds (3 hours). The 
default is 300 seconds. This parameter is valid with all three alert options.
-qtime quiet_time
Specifies the minimum number of seconds between consecutive alerts. The 
default is 300 seconds. The maximum is 31556926 seconds (approximately 
one year). This parameter is valid with all three alert options.
-noalert
Disables alerts. This is the default state assumed if neither -alert nor -noalert is 
specified.
-lsubsectimethresh time_threshold
Sets the threshold for latency bottlenecks at the sub-second level. The 
time_threshold specifies the minimum fraction of a second that must be affected 
by latency in order for that second to be considered affected by a latency 
bottleneck. For example, a value of 0.75 means that at least 75% of a second 
must have had latency bottleneck conditions in order for that second to be 
counted as an affected second. The time threshold value must be greater than 0
