After you have selected a device from the Sensor Pods window and clicked Sensors, the Sensor

Configuration window opens. Use the Sensor Configuration window specify a unique identification label

for a sensor, to specify the total amount of data from the selected sensor that will be preserved on the

appliance, and to create or modify thresholds for each sensor which, if violated, will result in an alert

condition being reported to the appliance.

The Sensor Pods Sensor Configuration task.

The Sensor Configuration window is divided into two selection lists: Sensors and Thresholds. Any

sensors that are available for configuration on this device are listed in the Sensors selection list. Once you

select a sensor from the Sensors selection list any thresholds that have been defined for the selected

sensor appear in the Thresholds selection list.

To specify a label for a sensor, or to specify the total amount of time that data reported by a selected

sensor should be stored on the appliance:

1. Select from the Sensors selection list the sensor you want to modify.

2. Click Modify to open the Modify Sensor window.

3. Type in the Label field a label to identify this sensor. This label can be up to 64 characters in length,

and will be used to identify the sensor in the Sensor Data pane, Advanced View interfaces, and in

alert notifications.

4. Select from the Sensor Value History drop box the total amount of time that data reported by this

sensor should be stored on the appliance. The total amount of data available on the appliance affects

the maximum amount of data that can be graphed (for more information see “Viewing Graphs” on

page 51).

5. Click OK to save the new Sensor values. Click Cancel to close this window without saving any

changes.
