Explore Monitoring Customizations for System Administrators
Explore monitoring customizations to learn about available options. You can then customize the Manage &
Monitor tab.
The system administrator Manage & Monitor tab differs from the organization administrator Manage &
Monitor tab. See “Explore Monitoring Customizations for Organization Administrators,” on page 97 if you
are an organization administrator.
Prerequisites
Log in to vFabric Data Director with system administrator privileges.
Procedure
1 Click the Manage & Monitor tab in the Data Director client.
2 Click Organizations to display all organizations and the resource allocation for each organization.
You can click an organization name to display details about the organization.
3 Click Alarms in the panel on the left, and select either the Triggered alarms tab or the Definitions tab.
Option Description
Triggered alarms
Includes alarm severity, description, definition, and the target object. To
acknowledge an alarm, right-click the Acknowledged By text box and select
Acknowledge. If more than one system administrator monitors Data
Director, the acknowledgement mechanism allows them to communicate
that someone knows about the alarm.
Definitions
Includes the trigger type (event or performance), the alarm name and alarm
trigger, where the alarm was define, the object the alarm is monitoring, who
defined the alarm, and the alarm status. You can create custom alarms from
this tab. See “Create a Custom Alarm,” on page 100.
