To configure a threshold alarm rule, use the following MBean operations (defined on the Threshold Rule MBean interface), for:

  • adding, removing and getting trigger conditions, and getting and setting their operators and periods

  • adding, removing and getting reset conditions, and getting and setting their operators and periods

  • setting the alarm

  • getting an alarm’s level, type, and message.

Tip See also Configuring Rules.

Trigger conditions

To add, remove and get threshold alarm trigger conditions, and get and set their operators and periods, use the following MBean operations:

Operations Usage

addTriggerCondition
getTriggerConditions
removeTriggerCondition
getTriggerConditionsOperator
setTriggerConditionsOperator
getTriggerPeriod
setTriggerPeriod
To add a trigger condition to the rule:
public void addTriggerCondition(String parameterSetName, String statistic, String operator, double value)
    throws ConfigurationException, UnknownStatsParameterSetException,
          UnrecognizedStatisticException, ValidationException;
public void addTriggerCondition(String parameterSetName1, String statistic1, String parameterSetName2,
              String statistic2, String operator, double value
    throws ConfigurationException, UnknownStatsParameterSetException,
          UnrecognizedStatisticException, ValidationException;

The first operation adds a simple trigger condition to the rule. The second operation adds a relative condition between two parameter set statistics (see Simple and relative rule conditions).

To get the current trigger conditions:
public String[] getTriggerConditions()
    throws ConfigurationException;
To remove a trigger condition:
public void removeTriggerCondition(String key)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;
To get or set the trigger condition operator:
public String getTriggerConditionsOperator()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public void setTriggerConditionsOperator(String operator)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;

The operator must be one of the logical operators AND or OR (the operator is ignored if the rule has only one trigger condition).

To get or set the trigger condition period:
public long getTriggerPeriod()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public void setTriggerPeriod(long period)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;

The trigger period is measured in milliseconds. If it is 0, the SLEE raises the alarm whenever the trigger conditions are true (and the alarm is not already raised). Otherwise, the SLEE raises the alarm once the trigger conditions have held true for at least the amount of time specified.

Reset conditions

To add, remove and get threshold alarm reset conditions, and get and set their operators and periods, use the following MBean operations:

Operations Usage

addResetCondition
getResetConditions
removeResetCondition
getResetConditionsOperator
setResetConditionsOperator
getResetPeriod
setResetPeriod
To add a reset condition to the rule:
public void addResetCondition(String parameterSetName, String statistic, String operator, double value)
    throws ConfigurationException, UnknownStatsParameterSetException,
           UnrecognizedStatisticException, ValidationException;
public void addResetCondition(String parameterSetName1, String statistic1, String parameterSetName2,
                              String statistic2, String operator, double value)
    throws ConfigurationException, UnknownStatsParameterSetException,
           UnrecognizedStatisticException, ValidationException;

The first operation adds a simple reset condition to the rule. The second operation adds a relative condition between two parameter set statistics (see bxfref:threshold-alarms[Simple and relative rule conditions]).

To get the current reset conditions:
public String[] getResetConditions()
    throws ConfigurationException;
To remove a reset condition:
public void removeResetCondition(String key)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;
To get or set the reset condition operator:
public String getResetConditionsOperator()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public void setResetConditionsOperator(String operator)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;

The operator must be one of the logical operators AND or OR (the operator is ignored if the rule has only one reset condition).

To get or set the reset condition period:
public long getResetPeriod()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public void setResetPeriod(long period)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;

The reset period is measured in milliseconds. If it is 0, the SLEE clears the alarm whenever the reset conditions are true (and the alarm is raised). Otherwise, the SLEE clears the alarm once the reset conditions have held true for at least the amount of time specified.

Setting alarms

To set the alarm to be raised by a threshold rule, use the following MBean operation:

Operations Usage

setAlarm

 
public void setAlarm(AlarmLevel level, String type, String message)
    throws ConfigurationException, ValidationException;

The alarm level may be any level other than AlarmLevel.CLEAR

Getting alarm information

To get a threshold alarm’s level, type, and message, use the following MBean operations:

Operations Usage

getAlarmLevel
getAlarmType
getAlarmMessage

 
public AlarmLevel getAlarmLevel()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public String getAlarmType()
    throws ConfigurationException;
public String getAlarmMessage()
    throws ConfigurationException;
