Rules

Foglight for Infrastructure includes some built-in rules that monitor the health of your infrastructure environment. You can and should modify rules to better suit your environment.

To review the list of Foglight for Infrastructure rules, use the Administration > Rules dashboard. From here, you can copy, edit, and remove Foglight rules.

 
* 
NOTE: Predefined rules may be modified during regular software updates. To avoid losing changes to these rules, we recommend copying a rule and making edits to the copy. Enable the copy and disable the original rule. You may want to identify your custom rules with a unique prefix to make them easy to find.
To review and edit rules:
1
In the navigation panel, under Homes, click Administration > Rules & Notifications > Rules.
The Rules dashboard opens.
2
From the Cartridge list, select Infrastructure.
The dashboard refreshes to display only the Foglight for Infrastructure rules.
3
From here, you can perform the following tasks:
•
Review a short description of the rule.
•
Review and edit threshold values.
 
* 
TIP: For rules that reference registry variables for threshold values, modify the threshold in the registry variable, rather than modifying the rule. For help finding and editing registry variables, search for “Registry Variable” in the online help.
•
Copy rules.
•
Edit rule conditions.
•
Associate actions with rules.
•
Create user-defined rules.
For help with these tasks, open the online help from the Rules dashboard.

Metrics

Foglight for Infrastructure agents collect metrics and store them in the Foglight topology model as topology objects:

•
AIX metrics
•
HP-UX metrics
•
Linux metrics
•
Solaris metrics
•
Windows metrics

AIX metrics

The following topology objects are collected by the UnixAgent when monitoring AIX® systems:

•
AIXHostDetails topology object
•
AIXMemoryDetails topology object
•
AIXPhysicalCPUUsage topology object
•
AIXUsedMemoryDetails topology object
•
CPUCounts topology object
•
Host topology object
•
HostCPUs topology object
•
HostNetwork topology object
•
HostProcess topology object
•
HostProcessInstance topology object
•
HostTopProcessEntry topology object
•
LPARNetworkInterfaceDetails topology object
•
LPARPhysicalDiskDetails topology object
•
LogicalDisk topology object
•
Memory topology object
•
NetworkInterface topology object
•
NetworkInterfaceDetails topology object
•
OperatingSystem topology object
•
PhysicalDisk topology object
•
Processor topology object
 
* 
NOTE: Some of these metrics can only be collected if the native agent has been deployed to the monitored host.

The following topology objects may be collected by the UnixAgent when monitoring AIX® systems, when users set the property “Collect Hypervisor metrics” for VIOS host monitoring:

•
PowerVMVIOS topology object
•
PowerVMVIOSCPUs topology object
•
PowerVMVIOSMemory topology object
•
PowerVMVIOSNetwork topology object
