We have zero swap space allocated in our servers and we want no alarms for low swap. (4314412)

We have a number of virtual machines which have been build explicitly (Intentionally) with no swap space allocated. This results in a permanent alarm about "no swap space". How can we stop the alarms or how we can change the swap variables so we do not get alarms when server swap is set to "Zero"

To stop the "no swap space" alert, you need to do the following.

To Manage Registry Variables dashboard includes a list of the registry variables that exist in your monitoring environment.

To access the Manage Registry Variables dashboard:

- On the navigation panel, under Dashboards, choose Administration > Rules & Notifications > Manage Registry Variables.

       The Manage Registry Variables dashboard appears in the display area.

- To sort the list of variables by their name or type, click the Variable Name or Type column headings as required.

        The Manage Registry Variables dashboard refreshes, showing the list of all Swap variables.

#Swap_Percent_Available# #Swap_Percent_Available# #Swap_Percent_Available#

Scope reg vars for the host which have no swap space.
Selecting "Manage Registry Variable" and clicking on the "SwapFatal" and go to the bottom of the screen and click "Add registry value" to add a scoped value select "Host" as my topology type. Will expects the "Topology Object" list box to allow selection from a list of hosts "All Object".
 
Example:
SwapFatal Global Default or conditions can be set to -1, so you do not get alerts.
