Creating Health Policies

If you want to customize a health policy to use with your appliances, you can create a new policy. The settings in the policy initially populate with the settings from the health policy you choose as a basis for the new policy. You can edit the policy to specify your preferences, such as enable or disable modules within the policy, change the alerting criteria for each module as needed, and specify the run time intervals.

Procedure

1

Choose System (system gear icon) > Health > Policy.

2

Click Create Policy.

3

Enter a name for the policy.

Note that the following names are reserved for the default policies, and you cannot create a health policy using these names:

  • Default Device Policy

  • Default Health Policy

4

Choose the existing policy that you want to use as the basis for the new policy from the Base Policy drop-down list.

5

Enter a description for the policy.

6

Choose Save.
