Defining thresholds and parameters

Specify the thresholds and parameters to govern the data collection. For more information about thresholds and parameters, see Thresholds and Parameters.

In this example, you are using thresholds and not parameters. The following thresholds might be sufficient for this example:

Thresholds Default Values
Maximum CPU usage 90%
Excessively consuming process 25%
Processes considered 10

Maximum CPU usage sets an indication to occur each time the CPU usage exceeds 90%. Excessively consuming process sets an indication to occur each time a single process uses more than 25% CPU. Processes considered limits the number of monitored processes to the 10 most consuming processes in the data collection.

You can describe the logic behind these values in the description of each threshold and give each value a function when you specify it in the decision tree script.
