Setting thresholds for Exchange metrics

You can set thresholds for Exchange metrics, using different colors to identify minimum and maximum values that you want to track. When you view the metrics in an insight table, if a threshold is reached or exceeded, the value shows the color that you specified. When you set a threshold, you set the color that displays when the number is over or under a specified value.

By default, the Thresholds Classification page lists key Lync QoE thresholds that can be set. You can add threshold classifications for Exchange ActiveSync, Exchange database, Exchange mailbox, Exchange message, Exchange DLP, and Exchange public folder metrics.

To add a new threshold classification
1
Click Classifications and click Thresholds.
2
Click Add classification. For a list of Exchange fields for which you can set thresholds, see Table 25.
3
Beside the displayed field, click the down arrow and select the field that you want from the list.
4
Specify the operator for the threshold:
•

•

5
Set the value for the threshold and the units of measure.
6
Select the color (red, yellow, or green) that should display when the threshold is met.

To add another threshold for the metric, click Add threshold and specify the value, units of measure, and color.

Omitting words when filtering by subject or body

For insights that contain information about Exchange email messages, filters are available for Subject Keyword and Body Keyword. The keyword filters list the words that occur most often in the subject or in the body of messages.

Typically you do not want to include common words such as “the”, “of”, or “they”. To omit words from the subject or body keywords, you add them to the Stop Words list.

To add words to be omitted from keyword filters
1
Click Queries and click Add Stop Words.
The entity is Email Message.
2
Click the down arrow and select the appropriate field:
•
Subject Keywords
•
Body Keywords
3
Enter any additional words that should be omitted when ranking keywords in messages.

Permissions needed to collect Skype for Business/Lync data

To collect data from Skype for Business/Lync, you add different data sources to gather information. You can create the following data sources:

•
Skype for Business/Lync Configuration: collect Skype for Business/Lync server configuration and user using PowerShell
•
Skype for Business/Lync CDR Database: peer-to-peer session and conference details from a Skype for Business/Lync CDR (Call Detail Recording) SQL database using SQL queries
•
Skype for Business/Lync QoE Database: Quality of Experience (QoE) information from a Skype for Business/Lync QoE SQL database using SQL queries

For each data source, you must specify the credential that is used to collect the data. In most collections, you have the option to use the credential that is specified for the Data Engine service. If you want to use that credential for your data collections, ensure it has the permissions specified for that data source.
