Enable Recalculation of Baselines

zackm

Please enable a recalculation of baselines for all components on an interval the same way we can do this on interfaces.

It would be even better if we could set this recalculation per application monitor instead of a single, global setting.

Yes, please! No two applications are the same; ergo, a global setting is limiting SAM's capabilities.

I am wary of relying on auto assigned baselines

If really depends what you are looking for - do you want an alert when a value drift out slightly, or only when it would impact performance in some way.

It would be nice to have the ability to set automatic baselines for some and disable it completely for others.

Does this help?

I've seen that before. I am more interested in the ability to turn on/off a "rolling" baseline per component monitor.

Grabbing a single baseline metric is nice. However, what happens when your application gets 30 new users? Being able to recalculate the metrics every week (or day), per component monitor, brings a new level of flexibility for the product.

If we want to get really fancy, it would just be EPIC to have a GUI akin to the Manage Nodes section where I can see all of my app monitors, and their component monitors by clicking a plus sign; check a box next to the XX that I care to edit, then click an "edit baseline" button to change large quantities of stuff.
