Setting limit conditions

BMC AMI Ops Insight actively monitors the system parameters. In addition to monitoring for anomalies, for certain specific KPI Groups, there are defined limit conditions. If a KPI Group breaches a limit condition, a limit breach event is generated (or it's added to an ongoing event). Use the procedures here to manage the limit conditions set for your monitored system.
