Attributes without States
Many attributes, such as the Process PFName attribute, have no associated state. You
cannot define an objective value on those attributes, and ASAP does not rank them.
For these attributes, ASAP propagates the values from the domain with the highest
alert level.
ASAP propagates these attributes regardless of any MetricRule setting for the
attribute:
File Attributes
Code Format Type Partitions LastOpen LastModif
Process Attributes
BPin Caid CLoc CreatedPaid PFName
PFS Pid Pin SMod SReq Type
Process PState and WState Attributes
The process state and wait state attributes cannot be combined using aggregate math
because each represents the unique state of an individual process. Typically, these
values are propagated to the aggregate record using the value from the attribute with
the worst state, but they can also be aggregated based on specific priority rules. This
behavior can be turned on with the RUL aggregate control and results in this priority
ranking of the possible values, from low to high:
PState
WState
UnAlloc
None

Lreq
Runnable
Lpipe
DebugBrk
