What Happens When a Threshold Is Broken

If the value of an OS health monitored attribute rises above the warninghigh threshold, a status of warninghigh is issued. If the value continues to rise and passes the criticalhigh threshold, a status of Failed Critical is issued. If the value continues to rise above the nonrecoverablehigh threshold, a status of nonrecoverablehigh is issued.

If the value then falls back to the safe range, no further events are generated until the value falls below the Failed Warning threshold, at which point an event is generated to show a status of normal.

If the value of a monitored attribute falls below the warninglow threshold, a status of Failed Warning is issued. If the value continues to fall, and passes the criticallow threshold, a status of Failed Critical is issued. If the value continues to fall below the nonrecoverablelow threshold, a status of nonrecoverablelow is issued.

If the value then rises back to the safe range, no further events are generated until the value rises above the warninglow threshold, at which point an event is generated to show a status of normal.
