Overriding Default Thresholds
In the lower part of the threshold configuration view, one can see the threshold overrides. You can use overrides to configure specific thresholds based on filter criteria. If the filter criteria are met, these thresholds will be used (rather than the default thresholds) to evaluate the performance state.
To add a threshold override, proceed as follows:
1 Press ‘New Override’.
2 In the ‘Health Monitor’ dropdown list, select the metric type.
3 Use the ‘Add Attribute’ button to add a filter.
4 In the value field, enter the filter value and press ‘Enter’; the tag will appear in the attribute value field.
5 Repeat steps 3) and 4) to add more filters as required.
6 Enter values in the fields marked with the performance levels (‘Bad’, ‘Poor’, ‘Fair’). Remarks:
Fields may be left empty.
Change to ‘Decreasing’ order if a lower value indicates worse performance. This is typically used for negative values as applicable to metrics ‘SFP Input Power’ and ‘SFP Output Power’.
7 Leave the editor by pressing ‘Apply’.
8 Press ‘Save and Apply’ in the top right corner of the threshold configuration view.
You can also remove or edit existing overrides.
Please note:
If, for a specific metric, more than 1 override is configured, the more general definition is applied, and if two with the same level of details are specified, the more recent one is applied.
→ Avoid overlapping or contradictory threshold override configurations.
