4.3.2 Change Collection Detail Condition window

The Change Collection Detail Condition window sets collection conditions such as thresholds. The appearance of this window differs slightly depending on the resource. Figures 4-21 to 4-23 show the Change Collection Detail Condition window.

The items to be set are:

Instance

This area displays a list of instances. If no instances have been registered, this area displays All instance. If you want to set collection conditions for a particular instance, you must register the instance in the Register Instance window.

Register

This button displays the Register Instance window or the Register Ping Address window.

Apply

This button displays the Bulk Apply Collection Condition wizard, which can be used to apply the instance collection conditions selected in the instance list to other instances collectively.

In reference mode, this button is always disabled.

Subresource list

This box displays the subresources and collection conditions for the instance selected in the instance list. You can set collection conditions for the subresource selected in this box in the Collection Mode area, Set Threshold tab, and Set Command tab.

Collection Mode
Save

Set whether SSO is to save collected data to the collection database.

Threshold

When you select this checkbox, SSO monitors collected data to see if it exceeds the set threshold and issues an event when it does exceed the threshold. Set a threshold in the Set Threshold tab.

Set Threshold tab

Specify whether to monitor a fixed threshold value or a statistical threshold value.

Fixed
Threshold

Specify a warning threshold and critical threshold. Specify the following resource thresholds as percentages:

  • CPU Utilization (Computer group)

  • CPU Utilization (CPU group)

  • Memory Utilization

  • Swap Utilization

  • File System Utilization

  • Interface Utilization (Network group)

  • Interface Utilization (HighCapacityNetwork group)

You can specify 0 or any floating decimal point (double-precision real number) between ±1.00 x 10-2 and ±1.7976931348623157 x 10308 as a threshold. If the fixed-point part exceeds 1.7976931348623157, SSO rounds it off. If you set the same value for the warning threshold and critical threshold, the warning region is eliminated. You can therefore specify only one continuous over counter in this case.

Continuous over counter

Set the number of times that collected data must consecutively exceed the threshold before SSO changes the status of the resource. The specifiable range is 1 to 99. The default is 1.

Statistics
Ratio of data

When you gather statistics from collected data, specify in a percentage the ratios of the number of normal value collections, and the number of collections including a warning threshold against the total number of data collections. For example, assuming that normal values are collected 97 times, warning threshold values are collected twice, and a critical threshold value is collected once, the data ratios would be as follows:

Nor. - War.: (97/100)x100=97.00

War. - Cri.: ((97+2)/100)x100=99.00

Specify the data ratio by using either of the following methods:

  • Move an icon above or below the slide bar to the left or right.

    The specifiable range is 0.01 to 99.99.

  • Enter the ratio of standard normal distribution data in the applicable text box.

    The specifiable range is 0.01 to 99.99.

Continuous over counter

Set the number of times that collected data must consecutively exceed the threshold, which is calculated from the data ratio set from the collected data values, before the resource status changes. The specifiable range is 1 to 99. The default is 1.

Set Command tab

Specify the command that is to be executed when the status of the resource changes. If you selected Set in the Execute command: area, specify a command name with a character string of 1 to 255 bytes.
