Metric

A metric is a ASM element that displays the state of a monitoring object at the first level. It is calculated based on data source logic and can assume various states depending on configured thresholds.

A metric can be calculated using confidence intervals. Confidence intervals are calculated in search queries, for example, using functions like avg or stdev.

Purpose

A metric allows you to:

• track indicator indicators (including both numeric and string values)
• track indicator indicators broken down by indicator objects
• analyze changes in individual indicator indicators
• fine-tune the correspondence between indicator values and metric states
• fine-tune the influence of individual metric states on the indicator state

Managing Metrics

To create and edit metrics, go to settings via the control panel by clicking the "Gear" button.

The following actions are available for metrics:

• create a metric
• enable/disable a metric
• edit a metric
• configure access rights

You can also access the metric settings through its context menu (right-click). For more details, see the relevant section node actions.
