Hi all.
A big bunch of nodes.
"Active" metric lies within [0...150] for some nodes:
And lies in the range of [0...8] for some other (actually [2...8] are very rare).
First case is fine, but the second is problem.
Baseline threshold formula for Critical state: 3 * ${MEAN} + 3 * ${STD_DEV}
As you can see, for metric with [0...8] range MEAN and STD.DEV are zeros.
That's why I'm getting tons of alerts: threshold happens to bee too low for these nodes.
Obvious solution is to add additional factor to the formula to filter them out : 10 + 3 * ${MEAN} + 3 * ${STD_DEV}
But I can't see the impact of this change - threshold is still ± 0.7 (but must be ± 10.7)
Template settings:
Applications settings:
Is my formula correct in terms of Solarwinds syntax? IMO it's correct and should work.
Why thresholds didn't update? According to a formula, Warning threshold can't be less than 5 and Critical can't be less than 10, even if MEAN and STD.DEV are zeros.
I waited for a night, but baseline thresholds are the same.
Any other idea how to lift thresholds for these nodes a bit?
