Tip: WhatsUp Gold provides
interactive dashboards and reports for situational management of thresholding incidents
including the Device Thresholds report and
Threshold Summary. For a view of currently
applied thresholds by type, you can apply a Device
Thresholds Report to one of your dashboards. For more information, see Logging, Reporting, and Dashboarding.
Please note, when configuring Alert Center thresholds, ensure the Automatically resolve items no longer out of threshold is enabled to avoid receiving continuous notifications from WhatsUp Gold applicable to the specific exceeded threshold.
