Defining dynamic thresholds manually


You can define dynamic thresholds manually for all 

BMC AMI Ops

 products. After you define the parts of a dynamic threshold, you must enable them for use, as described in Controlling-the-availability-of-dynamic-thresholds.

Dynamic thresholds consist of three parts: threshold sets, calendar periods, and threshold selections.

The basic steps to defining dynamic thresholds are:

  1. Define a threshold set:
    1. Create a threshold set definition for an element that you want to monitor.
    2. Add threshold comparisons to the definition.
    3. Enable the definition to make it available for use.
  2. Define a calendar period:
    1. Create a calendar period definition.
    2. Add time spans to the definition to indicate when the calendar period should be active.
    3. Enable the definition to make it available for use.
  3. Define a threshold selection:
    1. Create a threshold selection definition made up of threshold selection entries (pairs of threshold set definitions and calendar period definitions).
    2. Enable the definition to make it available for use.
