How to Create SRM Policy

You create SRM policy to define tests to perform, thresholds to monitor, configuration preferences, and other settings that control how the agent runs and what it monitors. Once you create a policy, you can apply it to any number of systems running SystemEDGE agents with the SRM AIM in managed mode. Policy lets you perform all configuration operations that you can manually configure locally with the benefit of a consolidated interface, pick lists, and dynamic deployment to remote systems.

The following process describes how to create SRM policy:

1. Click the Resources tab, open the Configure pane, expand Policies, then click Service Response.

   The Service Response pane appears.

2. Click + (New) on the Available Policies toolbar.

   The New Service Response Monitoring Policy dialog appears.

3. Enter a name and description for the policy and whether to base it on an existing policy and click OK.

   The policy is created, and a configuration screen appears in the right pane.

4. Define tests to include.
5. Define test thresholds.
6. Define control settings.
7. Click Save Policy.

   The policy is saved.
