Enabling or disabling alarms
By default, HP XP7 Performance Advisor monitors only those components for which alarms are
enabled and sends appropriate notifications to intended recipients when required. Though threshold
and dispatch settings are configured on components, they are not monitored until you enable
alarms on those components. You must manually activate or enable an alarm on a component for
HP XP7 Performance Advisor to start monitoring the selected component and send notifications.
To enable alarms on components:
1.
Click PA and DB Settings+Configure Alarms in the left pane.
2.
In the Alarms table, select the component records for which you want to specify the threshold
level.
You can also filter component records in the Alarms table.
•
To enable alarms on components, select Enabled from the list under the Enabled column.
By default, the current state for a newly added component record appears as Disabled
in the Alarms table.
Once the alarm record is enabled, it implies that the selected component will be monitored
by HP XP7 Performance Advisor.
•
To disable alarms on components, select Disabled from the list under the Enabled column.
Once the alarm record is disabled, it implies that the selected component will not be
monitored by HP XP7 Performance Advisor.
3.
Click Save to commit the changes.
