6.9.14 ETR 290 — Service thresh.
The Service thresholds make it possible to define detailed conditions for alarm triggering on a per-
service basis. There is one predefined service threshold template that cannot be edited by the operator:
Default . The Default service threshold template contains no service definitions and will therefore not
alter alarming for any service.
By associating scheduling templates to service threshold templates it is possible to disable alarming at
pre-selected time intervals. Scheduling templates are defined in the
Setup — Scheduling
view and will
be available from the schedule drop-down menu.
In the ‘Service Thresholds’ table, the ‘Refs’ column shows how many streams are associated with each
threshold template. Thresholds are associated with each stream in the
Multicasts — Streams — Edit
view.
There are two different ways of creating user-defined thresholds. To create a new threshold template from
scratch the operator should click the Add new threshold group button. A pop-up window will appear
allowing the user to assign a name and value to the new threshold and define the alarm conditions.
Another way of creating a user-defined threshold template is by highlighting one of the templates already
defined and then click the Duplicate selected button.
Deleting a service threshold template is done by highlighting the template that should be removed and
clicking
Delete selected . Note that if the deleted threshold template was assigned to a stream being
monitored, the new threshold template for that stream will default to the Default template.
The settings Service checks and Content check in the ETR threshold template controls whether or not
to report alarms based on the service threshold template parameters. Please note that content check
alarming (freeze-frame and color-freeze) are disabled in all default ETR threshold templates.
