Hi,

Our customer has some new requirement in setting up the Alerting in SCOM 2012 R2 as below

Any inputs on how to achieve these.

Hi 

yes,create a aggregate monitor with alerting enabled on worst state and creating an unit monitor for each input and ensure alerting is not enabled for each, so tat alert will be generated on all unit monitors turn to red.

Regards 

Thank you Sridhar for the leads, will try these and update you .

Sridhar,

Could you please share any links or doc to create these.

For CPU usage alert and RAM alert, a consecutive samples over threshold is suitable. For storage capacity alert, you should create multiple monitors with different threshold value. for how to create consecutive samples over threshold, pls. refer to

There are already monitors for CPU and RAM that you could probably use - just change the thresholds via overrides.

What do you mean by high consumption? Is this change in available space over an hour? Or does it relate to transfer of data?

What do you mean by storage capacity alert levels? I'm not sure you can do this efficiently with monitors. If a value of 99% was returned, I suspect (following advice above) that you would end up with multiple alerts (one for each threshold exceeded). It is something that would probably need to be scripted if you want more complex logic "greater than".

Hello Graham,

ALert level for high consumption is to alert when the disk is being consumed @ 1GB/hour, not sure how to set this.

Client needs Storage capacity Alert levels to configure in SCOM so that they receive Alerts when the disk space is at 75%,85%,90%,95%and 98%.

So As per suggestion from Sridhar and Roger I have created Aggregate Roll up Monitor and created Multiple Unit Monitors with Different Threshold Values.

Hi,

With All your inputs I have Created one Aggregate monitor and created multiple monitors for each. Thank you All again.

The other thing I am yet to configure is  to alert when the disk is being consumed @ 1GB/hour- Any inputs on this?
