Log Monitoring Rules

Metric Summary

The following table shows how often the metric's value is collected and compared against the default thresholds. The 'Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification' column indicates the consecutive number of times the comparison against thresholds should hold TRUE before an alert is generated.

Target Version	Key	Evaluation and Collection Frequency	Upload Frequency	Operator	Default Warning Threshold	Default Critical Threshold	Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification	Alert Text
All Versions	odl_message_alert_rule_name: "MSG-110"	Not Defined	After Every Sample	MATCH	YES	Not Defined	1*	[%odl_message_alert_rule_name%] matched %odl_message_alert_occurence_count% log message(s) since last scan. Message Text for the last matching message is as follows - [ %odl_message_alert_matching_text% ].
All Versions	null	Not Defined	After Every Sample	MATCH	Not Defined	Not Defined	1*	[%odl_message_alert_rule_name%] matched %odl_message_alert_occurence_count% log message(s) since last scan. Message Text for the last matching message is as follows - [ %odl_message_alert_matching_text% ].

* Once an alert is triggered for this metric, it must be manually cleared.

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each unique combination of "Alert Rule Name" and "Occurrence Time" objects.

If warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any unique combination of "Alert Rule Name" and "Occurrence Time" objects, those thresholds can be viewed on the Metric Detail page for this metric.

To specify or change warning or critical threshold values for each unique combination of "Alert Rule Name" and "Occurrence Time" objects, use the Edit Thresholds page. See Editing Thresholds for information on accessing the Edit Thresholds page.

Diagnostic Log Summary

This category provides information about diagnostic log summary metrics.

Remote Elements Discovered

Provides information on Bridges and Servers discovered.

Host.value

This metric specifies the host name of the machine in which the remote element is located.

User Action

No action required.

Name

This metric specifies the name of the remote element.

User Action

No action required.

Discovery Time (ms)

This metric specifies the time taken to discover the remote element.

User Action

If the time taken to complete this action is high, check for any network issues. Also, tune the timeout parameter in the bridge configuration file to allow for high discovery time.

Type of Element

This metric specifies the type of the remote element. Type can be "Server" or "Bridge".

User Action

No action required.

Resource Usage

This category provides information about resource usage metrics.

CPU Usage (%)

This metric specifies the percentage of CPU usage.

Memory Usage (MB)

This metric specifies the memory used (in megabytes).

Memory Usage (%)

This metric specifies the percentage of total memory used.

Response

Provides information about the status of Reports Bridge, Up or Down.

Up or Down Status

This metric specifies the status of Reports Bridge. Status can be Up or Down.

Metric Summary

Target Version	Evaluation and Collection Frequency	Upload Frequency	Operator	Default Warning Threshold	Default Critical Threshold	Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification	Alert Text
All Versions	Every Minute	After Every 60 Samples	=	Not Defined	0	1	%target% is down

User Action

If status is down, see the Report log files or use EM log viewer to find out why the Reports Bridge is down.
