pw report threshold instance

The  pw report threshold instance command generates and saves the Absolute, Signature, and Abnormality instance threshold configuration values report in CSV file for all monitor types defined at the TrueSight Infrastructure Management server.

The output is saved by default in the (Windows)\pw\pronto\tmp\thresholds and (Linux) /pw/pronto/tmp/thresholds folder.

The command saves the CSV file in the format : <TSIM_HOST>_Instance<Threshold_Type>Settings_YYYY_MM_dd_HH_mm_ss.csv

For example, tsim-host_InstanceAbsoluteThresholdSettings_2020_05_13_20_09_59.csv is the file name. 

Important

  • You can specify the location of your choice and provide the path only up to the directory level. For example, (Windows) C:\temp\ or (Linux)/usr/tmp
  • You do not have an option to specify the file name.
  • The maximum limit of saved files in the default location is 5. When it reaches the limit, it removes the oldest file before creating a new file. This rule is not applicable to the user-specified locations.
Usage:

pw report threshold instance [-type <absolute|signature|abnormality>] [-path <file_path>]
The maximum limit for the default location is 5 files. When the limit is reached, the oldest file is removed before creating a new file.

Where:
                 instance            Specifies the instance threshold settings.
                 -type            	 Enter one of the threshold type: absolute, signature, or abnormality.The default value is absolute.
                 -path           	 Enter only the directory path to save the file. The default value is pw/pronto/tmp/thresholds.                                                                        

Important

If there are no threshold settings configured, the CSV file cannot be generated and the console displays the following message:

No Instance Thresholds settings configured in the Infrastructure Management server for the specified type.

Sample CSV files

Absolute threshold


Signature threshold


Abnormality threshold


Note

If UOM contains values that are separated by comma (,), then it replaces with ^~ in the CSV file.
For example, in the CSV file UOM will be shown as 0 - unknown^~ 1 - online^~ 2 - offline^~ 3 - fault.
