Configuring Remote Monitor Systems

A configuration set is the entity assigned to an RM System; it defines what metrics (WQL queries) are collected and how those metrics are monitored.

A configuration set consists of several configuration items. The configuration items consist of a metric definition (WQL query) and a monitoring definition (threshold, severity, and so on).

RM provides the following configuration sets with out-of-the box metric and monitoring definitions:

default
extended
metricDisk
metricFS
metricNet

If different metrics must be monitored for an RM system with different threshold and severity settings, clone the out-of-the-box configuration set and adjust the cloned set to your system-specific monitoring needs.

The following table lists the RM metrics and the config sets to which they belong.
