OneSight Administrator Guide

Adding Monitors to a Monitor Group
4. Each monitor that you add must have a unique name. In the
Monitor Name box, OneSight creates a unique name for the
current monitor by combining the name of the monitor type
with the name of the host or system to which the monitor
applies. To change the default assigned name, type a unique
monitor name that helps you to identify what this monitor does.
5. To verify that the monitor will work as configured, click the
Test button. The Monitor Test window provides information
about the success or failure of the test and indicates what may
be causing any problem.
6. If the test succeeds, click OK in the Add Monitor dialog box to
save these basic monitor settings. Then, click OK in the Monitor
Group Editor to add the monitor to your monitor group.
Now you are ready to verify that the monitor is performing as
expected. Refer to the OneSight Operator Guide.
After you have determined that the monitor performs correctly, you
can configure additional features:
Set up an Alert to detect when performance crosses a threshold.
Set up an Action Plan to notify you if the monitor detects an
error.
