Node Group Status Settings Form

[This is the context-sensitive link for the Node Group Status Settings Form]

The Node Group Status Settings form is used to configure the percentage thresholds for a Node Group Target Status. The percentage thresholds you specify define what percentage of nodes within the group must have a particular Status. When the percentage thresholds are reached, the Node Group is assigned the associated Target Status. For example, when defining percentage thresholds for a target status of Critical, you might change the default so that 10 percent of the nodes in the group must have a status of Critical for the Node Group Status to be Critical.

Note Use a percentage threshold between 0 (zero) and 1 (for example, .01) to indicate the Target Status to be reached when one node in the Node Group reaches a specified Status. For example, if you want the Node Group Status to be set to Critical when the Status of one node in the Group becomes Critical, enter a percentage less than one for the Critical % value.

To define percentage thresholds for a Target Status:

  1. Set the Target Status and percentages you want (see Basic Attributes table).
  2. Click  Save and Close to return to the Status Configuration form.
  3. Click  Save and Close. NNMi applies your changes after the configuration is saved.
Basics Attributes
Attribute Description
Target Status

The Status you are configuring. This Status is assigned to the Node Group whenever the specified percentage thresholds are reached.

Note the following:

  • Whether all or one of the percentage thresholds must be reached for a Target Status configuration depends on the Boolean operator you select. The default Boolean operator is OR. (Also see Combine with AND below.)
  • If you do not specify any percentages for a Target Status, it does not appear as a Status for a Node Group.
Critical % Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to Critical before NNMi assigns the Target Status.
Major % Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to Major before NNMi assigns the Target Status.
Minor % Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to Minor before NNMi assigns the Target Status.
Warning % Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to Warning before NNMi assigns the Target Status.
Non-Normal %

Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to any of the following before NNMi assigns the Target Status:

  • Critical
  • Major
  • Minor
  • Warning
Unknown % Specifies the required percentage of nodes in the group that must have a Status value set to Unknown before NNMi assigns the Target Status.
Combine with AND

Specifies that you want NNMi to combine the percentage thresholds you enter using the AND Boolean operator.

When using this option, note the following:

  • All percentage thresholds you enter must be reached for the Node Group to be assigned the Target Status.
  • The percentage thresholds you enter must not exceed 100 percent.
