Monitor Using Calculation Formulas

ThirdEye allows you to automatically calculate acquired data using custom formulas. For example, the standard MIB HOST-RESOURCE-MIB includes MIBs for server disk size and usage, but does not include MIBs for usage rate (%). By using a custom formula, you can calculate disk size and usage to give a usage percentage. Here, we will describe the procedure using HOST-RESOURCE-MIB as an example.
