Notifications about the maximum allowed CPU and RAM load for the Central Node and Sensor servers

Maintaining a high load on the CPU and RAM of the Central Node and Sensor servers may prevent application components from working.
You can configure maximum values for the CPU and RAM loads on Central Node and Sensor servers; if these are exceeded, the upper part of the Dashboard section of the application web interface for users with the Senior security officer, Security officer, Administrator, or Local administrator roles displays a yellow warning box. You can also configure notifications to be sent to one or more email addresses and an SNMP protocol connection for sending information about the CPU and RAM load to external systems that support this protocol.
If you have deployed the Central Node and Sensor components as a cluster, warnings are displayed separately for each server in the cluster.
Users with the Senior security officer or Security officer role can also create rules for sending notifications. In this case, sending notifications correctly requires configuring maximum allowed load values for the CPU and RAM of servers, as well as notification settings on the server.
In existing rules for sending notifications about application components, the CPU load and RAM load notifications are enabled automatically if the All check box is selected under Components when the rule is created.
