The following example generates an email alert for Fabric Switch CPU utilization > 80%.   Access the Alerting Module from the Adiminstration UI.  Select Alert definitions in the left-hand menu an select the new alert icond (bell with green + sign) to create a new Alert definition.  Alerts are configured by dragging and dropping objects from the right hand window into the middle window. This example shows a Filtered entry box from the Entry Point section, a Comparator block from the Condition section and a Mail block from the Action section.  Connections between the blocks are made by selecting the output of one block and dragging the arrow to the input of the next block.  [IMAGE] The Entry Point defines the metric(s) on which you will monitor. Typically a Filtered entry is used to filter on a specific metric.  In this example, we use the following filter criteria to get Fabric Switch CPU utilization: source=Watch4NetSnmpCollector-1 parttype=Processor name=CurrentUtilization  Double click the Filtered entry block to edit it with the filtering criteria. [IMAGE] We then utilize a Comparator block to compare the utilization to a threshold.  The Stateless box should remain unchecked. Checking this box will evaluate the condition after each polling cycle.  Leaving the box unchecked will only send the results when a change in the condition occurs. [IMAGE] The Action box will define the action to take when a condition is met or not met.  The action options are sending the alert to a log file, sending an email, sending an SNMP trap or executing an external process.  In this example, an email is sent to administrator[NAME].com.  The subject is entered.  The message contains several keywords including: TMST: Timestamp VALUE:  CPU percentage PROP.’device’:  The switch name  Note that any property can be provided using the PROP.’ ’ keyword.  This example shows the “device” property which represents the switch name.  [IMAGE] An example of the email content is shown below: Alert time: 21/08/2014 13:44:18 CPU percentage: 94.0 Device:  tmg117226  Please refer to the EMC Watch4net Alerting Guide for more detailed information.

How can I create a threshold alert within ViPR SRM?   I know there’s a way to do it, but can’t seem to find where to set it up?   Please provide some guidance.  Thanks!
