Viewing Alarm Sensitivity Levels for Unassigned Agents

In previous versions, Foglight for Oracle offered four sensitivity levels that controlled which alarms were reported:

Essential — Store and display only critical or fatal alarms.
Normal — Store and display most alarms — essential and best practices; only critical and fatal statistical alarms.
Tuning — Store and display all SQL Server alarms sent to Foglight.
Performance — Store and display only availability and SQL PI related alarms.

This feature has been deprecated in Foglight 6.3.0. These sensitivity levels can no longer be changed, but for agents that have not been assigned to an alarm template, you may view a report detailing the sensitivity levels previously configured.

A Rules Sensitivity Report will be displayed.
