9-5 Managing Threshold Groups
You can associate a set of thresholds to form a group. This is a way to create a single alarm for multiple
conditions. A threshold group can contain simple thresholds.
Each group has its own behavior including severity level and message. The status of individual thresholds
determines whether an alert is triggered for the group.
For a group, you have two triggering options:
• Trigger the group alert when any of its individual members is triggered
• Trigger the group alert only when all of its members are triggered.
9-5-1 Creating a Threshold Group
Before you create a threshold group, you must first create a group name.
1. Open the Groups and Thresholds Configuration dialog box and click on the Create button on the Groups
tab page. The Create Group dialog box is displayed.
