Table 338-1

Attribute Label | Description | Value Constraints
--- | --- | ---
Name | The name of this gauge monitor. Each monitor within a domain must have a unique name. The name displays in the Administration Console, and if you use WebLogic Server command-line utilities or APIs, you use this name to identify the gauge monitor. After you have created a gauge monitor, you cannot change its name. Instead, clone the gauge monitor and provide a new name for the clone. For more information, refer to Cloning Configuration Objects. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `Name` |
Monitored MBean Type | The MBean type that defines the attribute you want to monitor. For more information, refer to Determining the Names of Other Attributes. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `MonitoredMBeanType` |
Monitored MBean Name | The name of the MBean instance that you want to monitor. If you leave this field empty, WebLogic Server monitors all instances of the MBean type that you specify in Monitored MBean Type. For more information, refer to Determining the Names of Other Attributes. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `MonitoredMBeanName` |
Monitored Attribute Name | The name of an attribute to monitor. For more information, refer to Determining the Names of Other Attributes. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `MonitoredAttributeName` |
Polling Interval | The frequency (in seconds) that WebLogic Server checks the attribute value. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `PollingInterval` | Units: seconds Minimum: 1 Maximum: 65535
Threshold High | The high threshold at which a trap is generated. A trap is generated if the monitored value is equal to or greater than this value. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `ThresholdHigh` |
Threshold Low | The low threshold at which a trap is generated. A trap is generated if the monitored value is less than or equal to this value. MBean: `weblogic.management. configuration. SNMPGaugeMonitorMBean` Attribute: `ThresholdLow` |
