web-ui - Alerts - does mention of "Average" is required for CPU, Disk, RAM utilization alerts.

[ss5829]

the alert names for CPU, Disk, RAM utilization categories usually start with "Host CPU Usage....", "Host Disk Usage...", "Cluster CPU Usage...", "Cluster RAM Usage..." etc.

actually it is the Average of the utilization values wrt to the duration.

hence should these alerts be prefixed with "Average" like "Average Host CPU Usage...", "Average Host Disk Usage...", "Average Cluster CPU Usage...", "Average Cluster RAM Usage..." etc.

please comment.

@ss5829 The alerts are triggered if the utilization remains above the specified threshold for the duration of the specified time. The documentation gives an example:

Example: Setting Threshold to 75 and Duration to 30s for DiskUsageExceedsThreshold alert would trigger an alert if disk usage remained over 75% for at least 30 seconds.

@jgespino ,

please note that the emphasis of this discussion is the method used for calculation - average of values over duration.

hence kindly recommend if it is suitable to include the "Average" prefix.
