Sorry I discovered one more item while trying to set this up for a customer. So I added a complex data point for CPU Wait Percentage... then I went back to the device I needed the threshold on and set a custom threshold there... however, I can't set a custom consecutive polls there.. this should be allowed.
For example,
Maybe on our DB servers we want to be alerted if the CPU has been over 80% for 10 minutes but on web servers we want to be alerted if the CPU has been over 75% for 15 minutes.
The only way I could do that today is to create a new data source which isn't a huge deal breaker... but if you've been running LM for say 2 years and oops now we have that need, I have to create a new data source and lose my history for whatever devices that I had to create a new data source for... unless I want to give my data source a new name... but that gets ugly.. nor do I want to manage a bunch of data sources :)/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20" />
