Default Monitoring Configurations

IBM AIX Server has default Global Device Management Policies, Global Templates, Global Monitors and Global Metrics in OpsRamp. You can customize these default monitoring configurations as per your business requirement by cloning respective Global Templates and Global Device Management Policies. It is recommended to clone them before installing the application to avoid noise alerts and data.

  1. Default Global Device Management Policies

    You can find the Device Management Policy for each Native Type at Setup > Resources > Device Management Policies. Search with suggested names in global scope:

    {appName nativeType - version - Type}

    Ex: ibm-aix-server IBM AIX Cluster - 4 - IBM AIX PowerHA Cluster (i.e, appName = ibm-aix-server, nativeType = IBM AIX Cluster, version = 4, Type = IBM AIX PowerHA Cluster)

  2. Default Global Templates

    You can find the Global Templates for each Native Type at Setup > Monitoring > Templates. Search with suggested names in global scope. Each template adheres to the following naming convention:

    {appName Type nativeType 'Template' - version}

    Ex: ibm-aix-server IBM AIX PowerHA Cluster Template - 4 g(i.e, appName = ibm-aix-server, Type = IBM AIX PowerHA Cluster, nativeType = IBM AIX Cluster, version = 4)

  3. Default Global Monitors

    You can find the Global Monitors for each Native Type at Setup > Monitoring > Monitors. Search with suggested names in global scope. Each Monitors adheres to the following naming convention:

    {monitorKey appName nativeType - version}

    Ex: IBM AIX Cluster Monitor ibm-aix-server IBM AIX Cluster 4(i.e, monitorKey = IBM AIX Cluster Monitor, appName = ibm-aix-server, nativeType = IBM AIX Cluster, version = 4)
