Custom alerts
Lenovo XClarity One raises alerts based on known hardware and firmware issues. You can create alert rules for raising custom alerts that you are interested in based the frequency of events or based on metric thresholds.
Even-based alerts
You can define custom alert rules to raise an alert when a specific event occurs on any device or management hub.
You can choose whether to raise an alert every time or based on the frequency at which the target event is raised. If you choose frequency, an alert is not raised unless the target event occurs a certain number of times (count) during a certain period of time (interval). The interval is defined in minutes.
You can create alert rules for an event that already occurred by clicking Monitor in the context menu from the Device management view, and then click the title of the Events card. Select the event, and then select the Create alert rule icon (
).
You can generate an alert rule for any event by clicking the Alert rules tab on context menu from the Settings view, and then clicking the Create alert rule icon (
).
Tip: For a list of event codes, see Event messages.
Metric-based alerts
You can edit alert rules for usage-metric thresholds, but you cannot create new alert rules for them.
Currently XClarity One supports threshold alerts for processors and memory.
Thresholds for these usage metrics are enabled by default. When enabled, an alert is raised when a component meets or exceeds its warning or critical threshold for the alert duration. The alert duration is the number of minutes during a specific period that the threshold value must be met or exceeded. For example, if processor temperature has a warning threshold of 80% and alert duration of 4 of 10 minutes, then an alert is raised when the processor temperature exceeds 80% for 4 or more minutes within a 10-minute period.
The minimum interval is 2 minutes within a 5-minute period.
You can set warning and critical usage thresholds and the alert duration for the certain components by clicking the Alert rules tab on context menu from the Settings view and then clicking the row for the component that you want to change.
