dashboard alarm thresholds modify

Modify alarm thresholds

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The dashboard alarm thresholds modify command modifies the cluster-wide configuration of alarm thresholds.

Parameters

-type <Metric Type> - Metric Type

Use this parameter to specify the type of object to monitor, such as cpu-busy, port-util, op-latency, port-problems, or aggregate-used.

[-warning <Counter>] - Warning Threshold

Use this parameter to specify the threshold value that generates a a warning alarm for an event.

[-critical <Counter>] - Critical Threshold

Use this parameter to specify the threshold value that generates a critical alarm for an event.

[-send-ems {true|false}] - Send EMS

Use this parameter with the value true to specify that an EMS (Event Management System) message is sent when the alarm is generated or cleared. Use this parameter with the value false to specify that an EMS message is not sent.

[-interval <integer>] - Interval (secs)

Use this parameter to specify the interval in seconds at which the alarm dashboard monitors objects. Valid values are between 60 and 6,000 seconds.

Examples

The following example modifies the warning and critical alarm thresholds for space used on aggregates. When 50% of the aggregate's space is consumed, a warning message is generated. When 60% of the aggregate's space is consumed, a critical message is generated. EMS messages are sent both when the value rises to the critical threshold, and when it subsequently falls to the warning threshold. The system checks values every 5 minutes.
