Adding Thresholds
Message thresholds are triggering devices that alert operations personnel to
take action when a certain number of messages are generated over a certain
period of time. Message thresholding allows for escalation of message
priority or criticality. A system message may be of little concern when it
occurs in small numbers over long time intervals. However, an increase of
message occurrences over shorter time intervals may indicate more serious
problems with the system. Message thresholding sends a new message to
be sent when a threshold is reached. The new message may be higher in
priority and have a different destination set than the original message.
This procedure adds a new threshold and thresholding message ID pair to
the current list of thresholds for the current system message.
To add a message threshold:
