The following topics describe how to configure and tune metrics collection for the plug-in.
All metrics collection intervals are configurable. To set a different collection schedule for a target, do the following:
Display the Metric and Collection Settings page for the target.
In the target menu, select Monitoring, then select Metric and Collection Settings.
Change the collection interval for one or more metrics.
In the Collection Schedule column, click a collection interval to change the setting.
Many metrics collected by the plug-in have predefined thresholds and incident messages. When a threshold is crossed, an incident is reported by means of an alert message in the Incidents and Problems table for the target.
To change an event threshold for a target, do the following:
Display the Metric and Collection Settings page for the target.
In the target menu, select Monitoring, then select Metric and Collection Settings.
Change the thresholds for an event.
Edit the settings in the Warning Threshold or Critical Threshold columns.
