Configuring service level agreement objects in the EMC

The Service Level Agreement (SLA) librarythe Exinda repository for network objects and their definitions objects are used to monitor the availability of particular IPInternet protocol addresses. By creating an SLA object, you identify the IP address to monitor. The Exinda Management Center then sends one ICMPInternet Control Message Protocol ping every 10 seconds to the IP address. You can specify the ping packet size to use. You can also specify when an alert is triggered by defining the ping latency threshold and the duration by which the ping latency threshold was exceeded. An alert is triggered when the latency of the SLA site exceeds the latency threshold for longer than the specified duration.
