Advanced View: Configuring Pods and Alerts

82 Using Your Appliance

To configure a threshold, select the sensor for which you will create a threshold from the Sensors

selection list. Any previously configured thresholds for the selected sensor appear in the Thresholds

selection list.

All sensors have a default, pre-configured threshold that will be generated automatically by the Advanced

View. This predefined threshold provides the most typical threshold that would be used for the specific

sensor type. However, thresholds are highly customizable and configurable, enabling you to create a wide

variety of thresholds to suit your needs. Sensor thresholds are explained in detail in “Advanced View:

Defining Thresholds” on page 141.

To enable or modify a predefined sensor threshold:

1. Select a sensor from the Sensor selection list.

2. A list of currently defined thresholds for the selected sensor appears in the Thresholds selection list.

Select the threshold you wish to enable or modify from the Thresholds selection list.

3. Click Edit....

4. The Edit Threshold window appears.

– To enable the threshold, check the Enabled check box.

– To change threshold settings, use the controls in the Edit Threshold window to set new values as

desired.

Click OK to save your new threshold settings. Click Cancel to close the Edit Threshold window without

saving any changes.

IPMI Devices

Use the IPMI Devices task to add network-attached, Intelligent Platform Management Interface-enabled

devices to the list of devices that are monitored by your NetBotz appliance. The Intelligent Platform

Management Interface (IPMI) standard defines a hardware and software management interface and

implementation that provide different hardware platforms with compatible server management and

control functions. The IPMI standard is promoted and supported by over 150 server manufacturers.

Note

If the selected sensor does not support configuration of thresholds a message

advising you of this appears in the Thresholds area of the interface.

Note

The controls that are available in the Edit Threshold window are determined by

the type of threshold that you are creating or editing. For detailed instructions on

how to create or edit thresholds, see “Advanced View: Defining Thresholds” on

page 141.
