Monitoring Rules Parameters
Monitoring rules are defined by rule parameters. The following table describes monitoring rules parameters and their valid values.
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
Name |
Name of the rule. (Max. length 50 characters) |
Metric Type |
Criterion being measured. For valid values of Metric Type, see the Valid Values for Metric Type table, below. Each metric type has a Value Type constraining the kind of value which may be assigned to it. |
Product Type(s) |
Managed product type (or types) to which the rule applies. These are automatically selected based on the Metric Type. For example, if you selected a metric type that applied only to hardware, such as Voltage, only products with hardware form factors would be available for selection. You can also deselect types to which to apply the rule, as applicable. |
Specific Node Selector |
Click View/Choose, and then select one or more specific nodes to which the rule applies. If none are chosen, then the rule applies to all nodes of the selected Product Types. |
Severity |
Breach severity. Valid values are Healthy, Warning, Critical and Fatal. Thresholds for each of these values are defined by the administrator. |
Aggregation |
Aggregation function applied to Metric Type data points. Valid values:
|
Measurement |
A comparison between two criteria. Valid values:
|
Value |
Threshold value for comparison. Valid values are dependent on Metric Type.
|
Notify Me |
Select one or more notification mechanisms for alerts about the rule (Email, SNMP, or Audit Forwarding). |
Status |
If Enabled, the rule will apply and produce alerts, as specified in Notify Me. (ArcMC rule presets are Disabled by default.) |
Time Range |
Evaluation interval, in hours and minutes. The total of hours and minutes must not exceed 168 hours (7 days). |
Note: Compound rules (AND/OR) are not supported.
