You can create monitoring profiles with static thresholds for managing user and system resources. The performance parameters defined in the threshold profile determine when an alert is triggered.

Create threshold profiles for user or system resources based on the resource type, and then assign the resources you want to monitor.

For user resources

The procedure for setting static thresholds for user resources is as follows:

  1. On the Administration tab, from the navigation pane, select Monitoring Settings > User Resource Threshold Profiles > Create Threshold Profile.
  2. In the Create User Resource Threshold Profile window, enter the profile name, description, and select the resource type.
  3. On the Monitoring Plans tab, click Create Plan to create new monitoring plans. You can either edit the base plan or create a new plan.
  4. In the Create Plan window, set the target period for monitoring. Under Target metric, click Static to enable static monitoring mode. You must manually enter the threshold values for the target metrics when you enable static monitoring mode.

  5. To save the profile, click OK.
    After you save the profile, you are navigated to the profile detail window, where you can assign target resources, or create resource assignment rules.
  6. In the profile detail window you can do the following:
    • On the Assignment Rules tab, you can create rules for assigning resources to the monitoring profile automatically.
    • On the Target Resources tab, you can assign the resources to the profile manually. You can also view the existing target resources associated with the monitoring profile.

  1. On the Administration tab, from the navigation pane select Monitoring settings > System Resource Threshold Profiles > Create Threshold Profile.
  2. In the Create System Resource Threshold Profile window, enter the profile name, description, and select the resource type. If required, copy the settings from the default profile or an existing system resource profile.
  3. Under threshold values, manually enter the threshold values for the performance metrics.
