Show Context Values as Percentage Check Box
Select the Show Context Values as Percent of Graph-Max check box to display values as a
percentage in the OEM Context field.
When this option is selected, statistics are displayed in the OEM Context field as a percent of the
Graph-Max value for the most used attribute of each object. You can control Graph-Max values
by selecting the Attribute tab in the Dashboard Properties window.
If this check box is cleared, Context values appear as raw values.
For example, if the Queue attribute of the CPU entity has a Graph-Max value setting of 10, and
a CPU has a Queue of 10, Dashboard reports the OEM Context for that CPU as Queue 100% in
the OEM Context field. If the Show Context Values as Percent option is cleared, the threshold
utilization alert is still reported as 100%, but the value that appears in the OEM Context field is
Queue 10 instead of Queue 100%.
The Show Context Values as Percent of Graph-Max option has no effect on the utilization threshold
state reported for OEM objects. It simply controls how the value appears in the OEM Context
field.
Report on Objects in Related OEM Subdomain Check Box
On the OEM property sheet, the Report on Objects in Related Subdomain check box controls
how Dashboard behaves when objects are selected in the OEM gateway.
When this check box is selected, a selected object and all objects in the same subdomain are
graphed.
If this check box is cleared, only the selected object is graphed.
For example, if the check box is selected and \HPQ0101\Cpu\0 is selected in the OEM, all CPUs
in \HPQ0101 are graphed in the Dashboard Browse window. If the check box is cleared, only
CPU 0 is graphed.
Show Utilization in OEM Check Box
To display state icons representing alert levels of segments, entities, and objects in the OEM,
select the Show Utilization in OEM check box.
When this check box is selected, icons are automatically propagated upward through the OEM
hierarchy based on the state determination algorithms you specify. You can specify utilization
thresholds using the Thresholds button on the OEM property sheet. You can also access thresholds
through the Browse window Thresholds toolbar button.
If you clear this option, performance utilization icons do not appear in the OEM, but you can
still get performance information for objects in the OEM by right-clicking the object and then
selected the Performance menu.
