Each field has two setting names: one to control the warning (yellow) threshold and another to set the critical (red) threshold. You can modify one or both settings. The setting to update for warning thresholds includes the word "warn" in the setting and the critical threshold setting includes the word "crit" in the setting name.

Changing thresholds for all elements

To change the current thresholds for all elements within your UIM installation, complete the following steps:

  1. Connect to your up.time DataStore using an ODBC or database tool. Assuming that you have installed Uptime Infrastructure Monitor in the default location, you can access the DataStore at the command line using the following commands:
    Code Block
    languagesql
    «change to the Uptime installation directory» 
    cd mysql
    cd bin
    ./mysql -u uptime --password=uptime -P 3308 --protocol=TCP uptime
  2. After you login to the UIM DataStore, run a command to update the threshold that you want to use with all elements. The command format and an example are detailed below. Replace the «field» text in the example below with a value from the DataStore setting name column in the table above. Replace the «new value» text in the example below with your new threshold setting (decimal values are not permitted for thresholds).
    Info

    All mysql commands assume that you are using a MySQL DataStore. The format of the commands may differ slightly for Oracle or SQL Server databases.

    Code Block
    languagesql
    mysql» update entity set «field»=«new value»;
    
    Example
    mysql» update entity set gs_swap_warn=50 
    mysql» update entity set gs_swap_crit=75
  3. Run the command above for each threshold value that you want to change. When you are finished, use the exit; command to return to the command line.
  4. Refresh your Global Scan view to see the new settings.
