Thresholds and Alerts Actions

Home  Previous  Next

What Are Thresholds?

Thresholds are used to define acceptable values for the parameters collected. You can set thresholds for each parameter of any monitor. Breaching these thresholds will trigger an alert.

Monitoring Studio KM for PATROL offers default thresholds that can be very easily tailored to your needs through wizards. Monitoring Studio accepts up to two alert thresholds in addition to defining the acceptable range values.

What Are Alert Actions?

When a threshold is breached, an alert is raised. Alert Actions enable you to configure specific actions to be executed when an alert is raised by a parameter. With Alert Actions, it is possible to customize the way a problem notification is performed, or specify a recovery action to be run when a problem occurs.
