Setting Up Element Monitors and Alarms

To set up element monitors and alarms, you must set up the conditions to monitor the alarms. The monitors setup for the element applies to the entire server group, if applicable. You can monitor the following activities:

• CPU Usage–the percent of CPU being used or an average for machines with multiple CPUs.

• Disk Usage–the percent of disk being used.

• RAM Usage–the percent of RAM in use.

• Swap Memory Usage–the percent of swap memory in use.

• Bandwidth Utilization–the percent of bandwidth in use.

In addition, each monitor can be configured to record monitoring information at an interval that you specify. The interval must be a multiple of five minutes.
