Setting the alarm sensitivity level

Alarms are triggered by bottlenecks in your monitored environment. Hyper-V Monitoring in Foglight Evolve Cloud generates alarms when a rule determines that certain pre-defined conditions are met.

The alarm sensitivity in Hyper-V Monitoring in Foglight Evolve Cloud dictates the level of alarms the system generates, stores, and displays. You can configure the level of alarm sensitivity through the Hyper-V Configuration dashboard. The alarm sensitivity level you set here applies to your entire Hyper-V infrastructure.
