Hi guys,

I am currently setting the thresholds on some groups of server and was wondering if it was possible to fine tune the threshold so that it will not alert us unless the thrshhold has been violated for a few seconds? For instance, I would like to set it so that if a CPU sits at 100% for more than 10 seconds to alert us.  Currently if a server spikes to 100% for a millisecond then drops down we are geting alerted which is causing dozens of meaningless alerts to be emailed out.

 I noticed the consecutive times option is there but im not sure if that will be relavent in this case, as if a cpu locks out at 100% it will only be the one time it violates and not multiple, is this correct?

 

Thanks
