4.3.14 Threshold verification window

The Threshold verification window sets the information necessary to verify thresholds from the collected data. The following figure shows the Threshold verification window.

Figure 4‒37: Threshold verification window

[Figure]

Note

Some GUI characters might be hidden. If this happens, enlarge the window.

The items to be set are:

Verification condition tab

Select this tab to set the conditions for verifying the method of verifying thresholds. For descriptions about display items in the Verification condition tab, see 4.3.14(1) Verification condition tab.

Collection Data tab

Select this tab to set the conditions for the data of which threshold you want to verify. For descriptions about display items in the Collection Data tab, see 4.3.14(2) Collection Data tab.

Verification time zone tab

Select this tab to set the time zone for verifying thresholds. For descriptions about display items in the Verification time zone tab, see 4.3.14(3) Verification time zone tab.

Statistic calculation parameter tab

Select this tab to set the time when a statistical threshold is to be calculated. For descriptions about display items in the Statistic calculation parameter tab, see 4.3.14(4) Statistic calculation parameter tab.

Threshold setting

Displays the Selection threshold setting ahead window.

For details on the Selection threshold setting ahead window, see 4.3.15 Selection threshold setting ahead window. You can click this button when you specify the applicable items in the Subresource List.

Threshold verification

Verifies thresholds, and opens the Threshold verification result window.

For details on the Threshold verification result window, see 4.3.16 Threshold verification result window.

While thresholds are being verified, the command prompt is displayed. Do not close it during verification.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Verification condition tab

Figure 4‒38: Threshold verification window (Verification condition tab)

[Figure]

The items to be set are:

Selected Instance

The instance name of the collected data is displayed.

Select the name of the instance of the threshold you want to verify.

Subresource List

This list is displayed only when you have selected an instance name in the Instance Selection window.

Select the name of the subresource of the threshold you want to verify.

Threshold verification

Select this check box when you want to specify the type of the threshold and verification conditions.

Select both a subresource name in Subresource List and this check box. By doing so, you can specify the type of the threshold, the threshold or data ratio, and the value for Continuous over counter. In addition, when you select this check box, display in the Verification column of Subresource List changes from NO to YES.

By default, this check box is not selected.

Type of threshold

Specify the method for verifying the threshold. By default, Fixed threshold is selected.

Fixed threshold

Verifies the threshold by using the fixed threshold method.

When you select this method, the Threshold and Continuous over counter columns are displayed.

For the Threshold column, specify the warning threshold and the critical threshold.

You can specify 0 or any floating decimal point between ±1.00 x 10-2 and ±1.7976931348623157 x 10308. If the value in the mantissa exceeds 1.7976931348623157, it is rounded.

For Continuous over counter, set the number of times that collected data must consecutively exceed the threshold before SSO changes the resource status. You can specify a value from 1 to 99.

If you set the same value for the warning threshold and the critical threshold, the warning region is eliminated. Therefore, in such a case, you can specify only one value.

Statistical threshold

Verifies the threshold by using the statistical threshold method.

When you select this method, the Ratio of data and Continuous over counter columns are displayed.

For Ratio of data, specify the data ratio in the warning region and the critical region of the threshold. You can specify a value from 0.01 to 99.99.

For Continuous over counter, set the number of times that collected data must consecutively exceed the threshold before SSO changes the resource status. You can specify a value from 1 to 99.

If you set the same value for the warning threshold and the critical threshold, the warning region is eliminated. Therefore, in such a case, you can specify only one value.

(2) Collection Data tab

Figure 4‒39: Threshold verification window (Collection Data tab)

[Figure]

The items to be set are:

Name of collection data DB

Displays the name of the database in which data that has the thresholds to be verified is collected.

DB selection

This button displays the DB selection window. For details on the DB selection window, see 4.3.13 DB selection window.

Collection Period List

This box displays the collection period of the data in the selected database. If only the collection start date is displayed, it means that the data is currently being collected. You can select multiple lines as long as they are adjacent.

Time Period Setup

Select this check box to narrow down the collection period of the data to be verified.

When you select this check box, you can specify a specific period based on the range within the collection period.

Date

Specify a range between January 1, 1980 and December 31, 2099 in the yyyy/mm/dd format. You can specify a range if you selected Time Period Setup.

Time

Specify a range between 00:00:00 and 23:59:59 in the 00:00:00 format. You can specify a range if you selected Time Period Setup.

(3) Verification time zone tab

Figure 4‒40: Threshold verification window (Verification time zone tab)

[Figure]

The items to be set are:

Check box for specifying a time period

Specify whether to activate the specified verification period. Only the time zone for the selected line is activated. By default, no time zone is specified.

Start Time

Specify the time to start verification in the range from 00:00:00 to 23:59:59.

Stop Time

Specify the time to stop verification in the range from 00:00:01 to 24:00:00. Specify a time after the start time.

(4) Statistic calculation parameter tab

Figure 4‒41: Threshold verification window (Statistic calculation parameter tab)

[Figure]

The items to be set are:

Statistical total time

Specify 24 to 720 (hours) as the period for extracting data that is needed for calculating a statistical threshold. The default is 96 hours.

Calculation timing
Interval

Select this radio button to specify the interval for calculating a threshold. The specifiable range is 15 minutes to 24 hours. By default, an interval of 1 hour is set.

Time

Select this radio button to specify the time at which a threshold is to be calculated. By default, the time is not set.

Del

Deletes the time selected from the calculation timing list.

Calculation time

You can specify the calculation period between 00:00 and 23:59.

Add

Adds the time you specified to the Calculation timing list.
