Issue/Introduction

When creating dynamic alarming calculated over baselines (TOT/TTT) from Admin Console UI enabled probes the thresholds and baselines are stored and computed in the baseline_engine. 

I can pull those baselines via command line using the baseline_engine callbacks. 

However, I'm not able to collect the baselines that are created for those Alarm Policies created after a MCS Enhanced profiles. They are not present in the baseline_engine. Why? 

 

Environment

  • UIM 20.4.x and 23.4

Cause

  • Working As Designed

Resolution

The 2 options available for dynamic/baseline alarming (OC Alarm Policies derived from MCS Enhanced Templates vs Admin Console UI compatible probes for baseline calculation) for creating TOT/TTT baselines and thresholds are designed to be separate and not conflict with each other. 

No configuration can enable Enhanced Templates Derived Alarm Policies to write baselines as Admin Console UI-compatible probes. 

Having MCS Enhanced Templates Alarm Policy baselines stored in the baseline_engine is an enhancement request.
