DIfferent Incidents with different thresholds for similar measures.
This is most likely a very simple issue however I cannot seem to figure out the right combination.
We have a very simple measure, a copy of the CPU total time that we have an incident based on. This works great. However the problem is that I would like to have separate incidents or separate alerting for different groups of servers at different levels. For example, ave. utilization of 75% on server group A warrants an alert however on group B, I want an alert at only 50%.
So I have another copy of the same measure, basically the same however named differently, with different warning & severe thresholds, but the only way I see to limit this measure to certain servers is in the details tab and "calculate by agent group", so I select the appropriate agent group, and now I don't see anything when graphing this measure, no measurements available. If I deselect that, then I get results, but for ALL agents in my profile.
Either I am doing something simple wrong (very likely), or perhaps there is a better way of alerting on the same type of measure however with different thresholds for different agents. Thanks!!
If I undstand you right you created 2 CPU total time measures with different thresholds (the first one restricted to the first agent group, the other one restricted to a second agent group). After that you created 2 different incidents each based on one of the measures. From my perspecive I cannot see any mistake and I would have done it like you. The interesting thing is that the measures show up without restriction but not if restricted for a specific agent group.
Pretty much except that the first measure isn't limited to any particular agent group, and it behaves as expected, for all agents.
