CPU - Average CPU Usage alarm
Raised when the average CPU utilization of the server exceeds a threshold. This value is taken over a specific number of background collections. Sustained high CPU utilization can adversely affect the performance of other processes running on the server.
CPU - Individual CPU Usage alarm
Requires Spotlight Cloud ProfessionalRaised when the average CPU utilization of a single processor exceeds a threshold. This value is taken over a specific number of background collections. Sustained high CPU utilization of a single processor on multiprocessor systems indicates that process threading may be functioning inefficiently.
CPU - Processor Queue Length alarm
Raised when the number of Windows threads waiting for CPU resources exceeds a threshold. Sustained high processor queue length is a good indicator of a CPU bottleneck.
Disks - Free Space alarm
Raised when there is insufficient free space left on the logical disk.
Disks - Percentage Used alarm
Raised when the percentage of space used on the logical disk exceeds a threshold.
Disks Queue Length alarm
Raised when the maximum disk queue length of any disk exceeds a threshold. Sustained high disk queue length is a good indicator of a disk subsystem bottleneck, and usually means that I/O times will be degraded.
Disks - Transfer Time alarm
Requires Spotlight Cloud ProfessionalRaised when the time it takes in milliseconds to transfer data between disk and memory exceeds a threshold. The metric includes disk reads and disk writes. If disk transfers are taking a consistently long time than a disk bottleneck may be developing.
File - Exceeded Set Size alarm
Raised when a file Spotlight Cloud is tracking exceeds the set size.
Memory - Free System Page Table Entries alarm
Raised when the Free System Page Table Entries performance counter drops below a threshold.
Memory - Percentage Free Virtual Memory alarm
Raised when the average free virtual memory drops below a threshold.
Memory - Physical Memory Available alarm
Raised when the available memory drops below a threshold. This can result in applications being unable to secure additional memory, new programs being unable to open successfully and general performance degradation due to excessive paging.
Monitored Server - Windows Alarm Action Failure alarm
Raised when a configured alarm action failed to evaluate.
Monitored Server - Windows Alarm Evaluation Failure alarm
Raised when Spotlight Cloud failed to evaluate a given alarm from a given collection.
Monitored Server - Windows Collection Execution Failure alarm
Raised when a given collection failed to execute.
Monitored Server - Windows Connection Failure alarm
Raised when Spotlight Cloud fails to connect to the Windows Server. Check the Windows server address, authentication and availability.
Monitored Server - Windows Planned Outage alarm
Raised during a planned outage of the connection, and cleared upon its completion.
Monitored Server - Windows Secondary Connection Failure alarm
Raised when the Windows Server is not responding.
Monitored Server - Windows Unsupported Version alarm
Raised when the version of Windows being monitored is not supported by Spotlight Cloud.
Network - Percentage Bandwidth alarm
Requires Spotlight Cloud ProfessionalRaised when average network bandwidth capacity of the specified network card is nearing the limit where it is saturating the network link. This value is taken over a specific number of background collections.
Paging - Disk Activity alarm
Requires Spotlight Cloud ProfessionalRaised when paging is low, but the average disk activity on a paging file disk is high. This value is taken over a specific number of background collections.
Paging - File Collision alarm
Raised when there is more than one paging file on a single physical disk. This can cause performance degradation – especially on IDE disks. IDE disks allow only a single disk operation to be active on the bus at a time.
Services - Service Not Running alarm
Raised when a Windows service that is set to start automatically is not running.
