12.16 Program Resource Utilization

This metric category provides flexible resource monitoring functionality. The administrator must specify the criteria for the programs to be monitored by specifying key value specific thresholds. Values for the key value columns, {program name, owner}, define the unique criteria to be monitored for resource utilization in the system. By default, no programs are tracked by this metric. Key values entered as part of a key value specific threshold setting define the criteria for monitoring and tracking.

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each unique combination of Program Name and Owner objects.

If the warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any unique combination of Program Name and Owner objects, then you can view those thresholds on the All Metrics page for this metric.

To specify or change the warning or critical threshold values for each unique combination of Program Name and Owner objects, use the Modify Thresholds page.
