> #### Default database monitoring plans

> Fathom provides a default monitoring plan for each managed database. Figure 1–1 shows a sample default database monitoring plan.

> Figure 1–1: Database monitoring plan default values

> The default monitoring plan shown in Figure 1–1 consists of the values described in Table 1–1.

> Table 1–1: Monitoring plan default values
> Field | Default value | Description
> --- | --- | ---
> Schedule | Default schedule plan | Identifies the system-defined 24/7 default schedule used when the plan is active.
> Poll | 5 mins | Identifies the polling cycle, which is the frequency at which the resource's rules are checked, set up for this database resource monitor.
> Alerts | Enabled | Indicates whether alerts are active and will be generated when the plan is active.
> Trend | Disabled | Indicates whether the data monitored while this plan is active will (or will not) be stored to the FathomTrendDatabase. (This option will not be initially set as a default value unless you chose it when you added the database to Fathom.)
> Rule summary | Default DB rule set | Consists of two rules: Abnormal Shutdown and AgentAbnormalShutdown.

> Note: Fathom prevents the assignment of schedules that share overlapping time periods. For example, if you have a Default Schedule set up for a resource monitor, you cannot set up an additional plan because the Default_Schedule is defined for 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. You must modify the Default_Schedule or remove it from the plan in order to add any other plans.
