Environment

Novell Operations Center Business Service Manager 4.7
Novell Operations Center Business Service Manager 4.5

Situation

The, Server, element underneath the, Administration, branch, display condition based on the memory left in the application.

If the, Server, element is critical, that means 90% of all available memory is used, major is 80% left, minor 70%.

You want to change these default, so they better indicate the state of application as you perceive it.

If you want to change these percentage defaults, that can be done by adding properties to, ../config/Formula.custom.properties.

For example:
Server.Memory.Threshold.CRITICAL=0.05
Server.Memory.Threshold.MAJOR=0.1
Server.Memory.Threshold.MINOR=0.2
Server.Memory.Threshold.INFORMATIONAL=0.5

CRITICAL is now 5% memory left, MAJOR 10%, MINOR 20%, INFORMATIONAL 50%.

Resolution

You can change the default thresholds by adding properties to, ../config/Formula.custom.properties.

For example:
Server.Memory.Threshold.CRITICAL=0.05
Server.Memory.Threshold.MAJOR=0.1
Server.Memory.Threshold.MINOR=0.2
Server.Memory.Threshold.INFORMATIONAL=0.5

CRITICAL is now 5% memory left, MAJOR 10%, MINOR 20%, INFORMATIONAL 50%.

You must restart the application for the settings to take effect.
