Hello, How could I change/override the number of session for this alert: Remote Desktop Services Active Session Metric Above Baseline Is it within the Monitors in Scom or is it on each Clients? On the monitor I see only two values Inner Sensitivity (2.81) and Outer Sensitivity (3.31).

Thanks, DOm System Center Operations Manager 2007 / System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 / Forefront Client Security / Forefront Identity Manager If you see inner and outer sensitivity, so this is a Self-Tuning Threshold Monitor.. Check Kevin's blog article regarding STT: http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2008/03/19/self-tuning-thresholds-love-and-hate.aspx Hope it helps.. Regards, Mazen Ahmed

Hello, I checked and changed the Inner and Outer values but as the value were 2.81 and 3.27 how it displays 0 and 1 in the alert?

Hi Dom, If you decided to disable the monitor, you have another option: -- Create a Unit Monitor based on Windows Performance Counter and configure a single or double thresholds.. for this Object\Counter Hope it helps..Regards, Mazen Ahmed

As I call out in that article - any counter that might be "zero" at any time is a bad option for a STT. <y recommendation in general is to disable STT's and replace with static thresholds. They just dont work well or reliably for many, many counter types.Kevin Holman http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman
