Trapping threshold violations to the log file

Once you e configured thresholds, you can enable the trapping of threshold violations to the main log file, proviso.log.

1. Open an existing Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager topology.
2. Go to the Logical View.
3. Browse to the Complex Metric Engine (CME) folder on the left pane as follows:
   Netcool/Proviso Topology > DataChannels > DataChannel 1 > Collector 1.1 > Complex Metric Engine 1.1.
4. Go to the Properties tab on the right pane and select the LOG_TRAPS property.
5. Set the value to true (default is false) by selecting the check box. This enables the trapping of threshold violations to the log file.
6. Repeat step 2 - 4 for each threshold violations trapping you want to enable for the DataChannels.
7. Save the topology.
   The following is an example of a threshold violation recorded in the proviso.log log file:
