In BMC Impact Model Designer, for each CI, you select one of the predefined status computation models: Standard, Cluster, Weighted Cluster, and Self-Preferred. Standard is the default status computation model.
Description of predefined status computation models
Status computation model | Description |
---|---|
Standard | Computes the status of a component by using the HIGHEST_VAL impact_function; the impact_status is the highest propagated_status of the incoming relationships. |
Standard Unknown | Identical to the Standard model except that no_alert_status is set to UNKNOWN instead of OK |
Cluster | Computes the status of a component by using the QUORUM impact function (See Quorum algorithm examples.) |
Weighted Cluster | Computes the status of a component by using the Status Weight attribute of the impact relationship object Status Weight is used in impact relationships to determine how much importance (numerically weighted) to give to each provider relationship that impacts a consumer instance. The higher the number, the greater the importance. |
Self-Preferred | Computes the status of a component by using the self-preferred algorithm for the consolidation_function |
The BMC_STATUS_COMPUTATION data class is the basis of all status computation model instances.
