Performance Settings View

The performance settings is similar to the alert settings in the way that it uses predefined templates to enable/disable specific sampling and to change their sampling intervals (in seconds).

There are two types of performance modules–OS and SQL servers. Thus, there are two types of performance setting templates. You may create as many templates as you wish. However, only a single template of each type may be attached to a machine/server.

Any new affiliation to a machine or a server will remove the affiliation from the previous template and attach it to the new template.

After affiliating your machine/server to a template, you may customize specific servers/machines by choosing the “custom setup.”

How do I find the performance settings?

Creating a new performance setting template

There are two ways to create a new performance setting template:

  1. To create a new blank template, press the “[+]Create Template” A create new template dialog will appear. Choose the new template name and its type.
  2. The second method (recommended) is to choose an existing template, press the (…) on the top right corner and duplicate the A dialog will appear where you will need to enter the duplicated template’s name.

Affiliating a server with a template

To affiliate a server or machine with an existing template, click on the template name and go to the “Affiliated machine” tab (if the template is an SQL type, it will say “Affiliated server”). Then press the “Add server” button and choose your machine/server.

To remove the machine or server, just click on the X next to its name or deselect it from the list of affiliated machines/servers.

Customizing a server to have different performance sampling properties

By default, your server will be attached to a template. If you wish to customize a specific server not to include specific health check tests, you first choose the “Custom Setup.” Remember that this option will unlink the specific test from the template. You can always undo this.

Note: Disabling any sampling module will result in having incomplete alerts, charts or informatiom from the user interface. Do this only by recommendation from Experda experts.

From the custom setup:

  1. Find your server from the tree list and click
  2. Find the relevant If it’s a machine-level test, it will be found in the Host tab. If it’s a SQL-level test, it will be found in the SQL tab.
  3. Disable/Enable the selection or change the sampling time for the server/ machine and press “Save.” This will cause the test to be unlinked from the template, which you can then undo by pressing the “reset” button next to it, which will return it to its template
