If you do not check this check box, availability and performance utilization icons are not
displayed in the OIL.
OIL Thresholds Button
Click the Thresholds button to open the Utilization Thresholds control panel. You can
use this control panel to set performance utilization thresholds for your ASAP
environment. You can also access the Utilization Thresholds control panel by clicking
the Thresholds toolbar button in the Browse window or by selecting Thresholds from
the View menu in the Browse window.
Utilization Thresholds Control Panel
Status and performance alerts for nodes, entities, and objects are displayed in:
Color-coded graphs
Icon annotated data grids
The OIL when the Show Utilization in OIL check box is checked
The OEM when the Show Utilization in OEM check box is checked
Both status and performance icons are propagated upward through the OIL or OEM
hierarchy for the highest alert levels. Even when the ASAP OIL or OEM OIL tree view
is collapsed, the highest alert level of nodes, entities, or objects is apparent from the
color-coded status and performance icons.
For example, if the performance utilization threshold is set to 80 percent and has a red
Critical alert icon, any object with a graphed performance attribute of 80 percent or
more utilization has a red critical alert icon propagated upward through the hierarchy
for that object.
Utilization Threshold Sliders
The five Utilization Threshold sliders control the performance utilization thresholds of
up to five performance indicator icons. The sliders set the corresponding performance
threshold values of icons that are to appear in the OIL or OEM. When a performance
attribute reaches a specified utilization threshold, the icon for that threshold appears in
the OIL or OEM next to the object.
Threshold values to the right of a slider are always greater than or equal to that slider's
value because they represent higher utilization indicators. Threshold values to the left
of a slider are always less than or equal to that slider's value because they represent
lower performance utilization indicators.
