Introduction - Alarm Configuration
This Demo helps you to do basic alarm configuration for
the monitors you have already configured.
Using this demo, we can configure an EMail alarm to be sent, if
the CPU Utilization crosses the critical threshold of 75%

Terms you need to know:
Alarms : Alarms are notifications generated based on some
condition or criteria called Thresholds.
Threshold : Threshold is a predefined set of values based on which
an alarm is generated.
Actions : Actions are tasks to be performed when alarms are generated
E.g., Send EMail, SMS etc.,
There are Four severity levels for the alarms and they are
Critical ,
Warning , Clear
and Unknown
Alarms are generated based on
1. Availability of the monitor - represents whether the particular
monitor is up or not. It has two states of severity - UP / DOWN
2. Health - represents the overall state of the monitor.
Depends on the severity of all the other attributes. It has four states
of severity - Critical / Warning / Clear / Unknown
3. Attributes (Numeric & String attributes) - Alarms
will be generated, if the threshold profile condition set for these attributes
is met. eg., alarm will be generated if threshold of the attribute - cpu
utilization crosses 75%
