C.10.4. RHN Satellite Server::Latency
The RHN Satellite Server::Latency probe monitors the latency of probes on a Satellite and collects
the following metric:
• Probe Latency Average — The lag in seconds between the time a probe becomes ready to run and
the time it is actually run. Under normal conditions, this will generally be less than a second. When
a Satellite is overloaded (because it has too many probes with respect to their average execution
time), the number goes up.

C.10.5. RHN Satellite Server::Load
The RHN Satellite Server::Load probe monitors the CPU load on a Satellite and collects the following
metric:
• Load — The load average on the CPU for a 1-, 5-, and 15-minute period.
