Introduction |
A notification encapsulates information about a significant event that has occured during the execution of a container or a component. The notification includes:
Threshold Alert Notifications |
Certain metrics allow thresholds to be defined for the purpose of asynchronous notification when those thresholds are exceeded. Which metrics allow thresholds to be specified is documented in a particular component type's documentation, e.g. the SonicMQ broker allows thresholds to be specified for the messages delivered to a particular connection identity.
The term used for the notification generated as a result of a threshold having been exceeded is an alert notification. Alert notifications are named based on their source metric (e.g. application.alert.connection.messages.ReceivedPerSecond for the example above) and encapsulate the actual value of the metric and the time the threshold was exceeded.
Where thresholds are allowed, multiple threshold values may be specified. Additionally some metrics allow for both high and low thresholds to be defined.
