Configure anomaly score thresholds
Metric Intelligence scores anomalies on a range 0-10. This range is broken down to the five levels of event severities, each represented by a different color in the Insights Explorer and in the Anomaly Map. You can configure the anomaly score threshold for each level of severity.
Before you begin
Role required: evt_mgmt_admin
About this task
Anomaly score thresholds are defined in the table Anomaly Score to Event Severity Map [sa_metric_anomaly_score_to_event_severity_map]. For example, by default, anomaly scores from 8 through 9 are severity 2 (Major). These anomalies are displayed in dark orange in the Insights Explorer and in the Anomaly Map.
For information on the event severities that each number corresponds to, see Event severities.
Procedure
-
Navigate to All > Event Management > Anomaly Detection > Anomaly Score to Severity Mapping.
-
In the Metric Anomaly Score to Event Severity Maps list view, double-click the event severity that you want to modify.
-
Modify the range of anomaly scores that map to the respective event severity.
-
Click Update.
