Define Alert Conditions for Application Workload

Connection workload monitoring provides byte throughput, connection rates, and concurrent active connections. For non-critical applications, connection monitoring is often performed to get trend data; however, you can set alert conditions on these criteria.

Note: For all numeric counter and total attributes, alert conditions are checked after each individual sample, based on its equivalent hourly rate. If the rate would exceed the alert condition, the alert is raised immediately without waiting for the hour to pass.

To set alert criteria on a business application name

  1. Enter /IPMON at the command prompt.

    The IP resource monitor appears.

  2. Enter UM beside the stack for which you want to update monitoring.

    The ResourceView: Stack Monitoring Definition panel appears.

  3. Enter U beside Connection Workload Monitoring.

    The Monitoring Definition panel appears.

  4. Type S beside the ConBytes or ConConnects attribute and press Enter.

    The Alert Control Details panel appears.

  5. Enter the name of the business application name for which you want to define alert conditions in the Qualifier field.
  6. Define the alert conditions.
  7. Press F3 (OK).

    The alert conditions are saved.
