Changing Properties in Customizing Transaction RZ21

Use

You can change the properties (such as threshold values) assigned to monitoring objects in the Customizing transaction for the Alert Monitor (transaction RZ21). The properties of a node can come from two sources in this situation:

· The properties come from the assigned MTE class or the attribute group of the MTE. MTE classes and attribute groups group MTEs in the same way, where MTE classes contain the general properties of the associated MTEs, while attributes contain the specific properties of performance attributes, log attributes, or status attributes.
· The properties are assigned to the specific node itself.

In most cases, it is useful to change the properties of all of the MTEs in an MTE class or an attribute group (such as the dialog response times for all application servers) at the same time.

Properties are grouped in properties variants. There is a variant for every property (whether it is an MTE class, attribute group, or a specific MTE), to which the property belongs.
