Sun Management Center 3.6.1 User's Guide

Overview of Module Relationships

Most of the Sun Management Center modules have default monitoring conditions that generate alarms when system values fall outside of these conditions. You can alter these default thresholds by creating your own alarm thresholds, as explained in Chapter 12, Managing Alarms.

Some modules utilize the Add Row operation to define the data properties to monitor. These modules start with empty tables. You have to execute an Add Row operation to activate the specifics for monitoring these modules.

The following table lists the modules described in this appendix. The table identifies the following information for each module:
