Alerts After n Times Parameters

Hardware Sentry parameters can be categorized in three main groups:

•Connector parameters: Status parameter of the MS_HW_CONNECTOR class

•Numeric parameters: Parameters that have numeric values such as Temperature, Voltage, ErrorPercent, etc.

•Discrete parameters: Parameters that have values such as 0=OK, 1=Degraded/Predicted Failure, 2 = Failed etc. These parameters display the status of the device.
Example: Status, LinkStatus, PredictedFailure, ControllerStatus etc.

By setting or changing the number of times a threshold can be breached before it triggers an alert – you can avoid unnecessary false alerts.

This is a "global" setting, and applies to the parameters of all the monitored devices of the system.
