You can use the following two options to convert individual measurements into rates
ranging from 0 to 100:
- Exponentially normalized
- Between a lower and
upper boundary
- Linearly normalized
- Between a lower and upper boundary
There is no difference between calculating performance rates for timers and
calculating performance rates for counters. Both are treated the same, thereby
enabling health rate comparisons. The default setting for
Monitoring Console is
exponential normalization, but you can change this setting to linear normalization.
This setting is used for all health calculations in
Monitoring Console.
This feature is only supported by
Monitoring Console. The following
graph illustrates linear in comparison to exponential normalization. For this chart, times
are measured in seconds. A lower bound of 15 s is used with a rating
of 20%, and an upper bound of 5 s is used with a rating of 80%.
