Mass Configuration: Sensor and Alert Settings
136 InfraStruXure Central 4.0 User’s Reference
To define a range threshold:
1. Launch the Sensor & Alert Settings task that corresponds to the numeric-based sensor for which
you will define a threshold.
2. Select Range Threshold from the Threshold drop box. Any selected devices that have previously
defined range thresholds will be listed in the Management Devices list.
3. Select the desired threshold operation and targets:
If you are editing one or more previously defined range thresholds, select the devices on which
the threshold has been configured from the Management Devices list and then click Edit.
If you are defining a new range threshold click Add. Then, select one or more devices for which
this threshold will be configured, and click Next. Finally, select the sensors on the selected
devices for which this threshold will be configured and then click Next.
4. Type in the Threshold Name field a name for this threshold.
5. Specify Basic threshold settings. From the Basic tab in the Thresholds pane:
a. Type in the Maximum field (or use the arrows in the field to specify) the highest acceptable value
for the selected sensors. This is the value that defines the upper limit of the acceptable range for
this sensor. If the sensor reading exceeds this value an alert condition results.
b. Type in the Minimum field (or use the arrows in the field to specify) the lowest acceptable value
for the selected sensors. This is the value that defines the lower limit of the acceptable range for
this sensor. If the sensor reading falls below this value an alert condition results.
c. Check the Enabled check box to enable the threshold. If this check box is not checked, the alert
threshold will be saved but will not be active.
Add to the Threshold-Specific Addresses list the e-mail addresses of any personnel to whom e-
mail alert notifications should be sent if this threshold triggers an alert condition. Click Add...,
type in the e-mail address to which the alert notification will be sent, and then click OK.
If you’ve installed an SMS-capable modem you can deliver alert notification to SMS-enabled
devices by entering threshold-specific addresses for them in the following format:
sms:sms_device_address
where sms_device_address is the telephone number or e-mail address associated with the SMS-
enabled device (for example, “sms:5123334444” or “sms:[email protected]”).
6. If desired, specify Advanced Threshold settings. All Advanced threshold settings are optional. From
the Advanced tab in the Thresholds pane:
Specify a Return To Normal Delay value. Use the controls to specify the number of seconds that
must pass after this threshold has returned to normal before the threshold state is considered
returned to normal. Default value is 0 (state returns to normal immediately after the measured
value is no longer violating the threshold).
Set an Advanced Schedule for this threshold (optional). By default, all thresholds are assumed to
be enabled 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. However, you can specify that a threshold will be
enabled only during specific time ranges. To set an Advanced Schedule:
Note
These threshold-specific notifications are sent only if your device has one or more Alert
Actions defined that use the Send E-Mail Message alert notification method and that have
the Include Addresses from Thresholds check box checked. For more information, see
“Alert Actions” on page 113 and “Creating Alert Actions” on page 221.
