Object Configuration Client: The Understanding 35
Monitoring can be specified at three different levels; the overall monitoring of the Node, the Threshold level, and
the Object level. The commands through which you can configure monitoring can be accessed using the
Monitoring menu, the Monitoring bar and the right-click menus of the Threshold and the Objects pane.
• Node Level Monitoring
You can configure the overall monitoring of a node by using the Activate Node Monitoring and the
Inactivate Node Monitoring commands. These can be accessed from the Monitoring menu and the
Monitoring bar. Only one of the two options is enabled at a given time. Selecting any one of the options
automatically disables the other.
• Threshold Level Monitoring
Monitoring for a selected threshold and all its corresponding objects can be configured using the
commands on the Monitoring menu (Activate Config Monitoring, Inactivate Config Monitoring), the
Monitoring bar (Activate Configuration Monitoring, Inactivate Configuration Monitoring), and the right-click
menu of the Threshold pane (Monitoring Active, Monitoring Inactive). Only one of the two options,
activating or inactivating is enabled at a given time. Selection of one disables the other.
• Object Level Monitoring
You can configure the monitoring of selected Object(s) by using the Activate Object Monitoring and the
Inactivate Object Monitoring commands in the Monitoring menu and on the Monitoring bar. This action can
also be performed using the Monitoring Active and Monitoring Inactive commands in the right-click menu of
the Objects pane. Only one of the two options, activating or inactivating is enabled at a given time.
Selection of one deactivates the other.
