Tuning abnormality thresholds

Abnormality thresholds control the abnormalities that are generated in BMC ProactiveNet. These are automatically enabled for all metrics except non-KPI metrics in the system. In general, the Abnormality thresholds need not be set or tuned, but in rare cases, the settings might require turning if they are receiving too many abnormalities or not enough thresholds. The primary setting concerned with the baseline type specifies which baseline to determine whether the metric is within the normal range of behavior. By default, the Adapter metrics is set to the ALL baseline type. For KPI metrics, which follow a clear hourly pattern, the BL type can be set to Hourly. This ensures that all abnormal behavior is caught and can be correlated correctly when doing probable cause analysis.
