Configuring a Failover Threshold

Configure a failover threshold:

Name. Used in the Threshold library and the title on the Alert Center Dashboard.
Notification Policy. (Optional) Select the notification policy to apply to this threshold. The policy initiates notifications when an item is outside the configured threshold limits.
Threshold Check Interval. Enter a time interval for Alert Center to check the Network Performance Monitor database for items that are out of the threshold limits.
Automatically resolve items no longer out of threshold. Select this option if you want Alert Center to automatically resolve items when they return to the value within the threshold limit.

Note: Notification policies are optional for most thresholds. If you do not select a notification policy, no notifications are generated for the threshold, but a dashboard report listing the out of threshold items still appears on the Alert Center Home page.

Add Condition Rules:

Threshold. You can configure the threshold to alert you when any event occurs, when an error occurs, or when an informational event occurs. By default, the threshold is configured to alert you when any event has occurred in Failover.
