Examples Using Alerts

Rules can be configured to display a health level indicator for a cluster member based on the number of alerts received in a time window.

In these examples (unlike the child cluster member examples) the cluster member path is shown. The cluster member path is used in both types of rules but is more relevant to display here.

To set the health level to warning if one critical alert is received for a cluster

  • Set Cluster Member Path to site/cluster
  • Set Health Level to warning.
  • Set Threshold to 1
  • Do not set Range.
  • Add a property called severity whose value is critical

To set the health level to warning if 5 or more critical alerts are received within a window of 5 minutes, for a query agent

  • Set Cluster Member Path to site/cluster/process/query
  • Set Health Level to warning.
  • Set Threshold to 5
  • Set Range to 300000
  • Add a property called severity whose value is critical
