  • Threshold Type - Used to determine which threshold type comparison should be done. Options include:

    • Availability which checks to see if the metric data is available in the selected period.

    • Performance Utilization which does the following calculation, which is then used in the threshold comparison: (Metric Data/Metric Maximum) * 100.

    • Performance Value which selects the raw metric value and is used in the threshold comparison.

  • Warning Threshold - The threshold settings used to check if the metric is in violation.

    • If set to None, no thresholding will be done for the widget.

    • If set to [Manual], a customized threshold can be set to change the widget color and play a sound when the metric is in violation.

    • If set to a pre-configured threshold, the widget can change color and play a sound when the metric is in violation.

  • Warning Threshold Operator - If Warning Threshold is set to "[Manual]", the operator that will be used to check for metric violation. Used in conjunction with Warning Threshold Value field.

  • Warning Threshold Value - If Warning Threshold is set to "[Manual]", the value used to check for metric violation. Used in conjunction with Warning Threshold Operator field.

  • Warning Audible Alert - If a metric is in violation, the selected sound will be played.

  • Critical Threshold - The threshold settings used to check if the metric is in violation.

    • If set to None, no thresholding will be done for the widget.
